Individual Retirement Account (IRA)

At PACU, we believe retirement isn’t just a finish line. It’s a fresh start. Our IRAs are built to help you get from dreaming of travel or time with grandchildren to simply having a future free of financial stress

You don’t have to be a financial expert to build a strong retirement plan. You just need the right tools and a little support. That’s where our PACU Investment Solutions Team comes in. Our IRAs keep things simple and focused on you. Here’s what makes our IRAs a solid choice for your retirement planning:

Choose the account that fits your financial goals. Traditional IRAs offer potential tax-deferred growth, while Roth IRAs provide tax-free withdrawals in retirement.

Depending on the type of IRA you choose, you could reduce your taxable income now and enjoy tax-free income later. Either way, you win.

Contribute at your own pace, whether it’s monthly, annually or whatever your budget allows, up to annual IRA limits.

With Piedmont Advantage IRAs, your savings work for you every day. Dividends (or interest) are compounded daily and credited to your account monthly, meaning your money earns more, more often.

Or, picture your Piedmont Advantage IRA as your money tree, watered daily (with interest) and fed each month (your credited earnings). It’s the kind of behind-the-scenes nurturing that makes a difference over time, helping you build a thriving retirement without lifting a finger (or hose).

Planning for retirement can feel like you’re driving cross-country without a GPS or map. Our Roth vs Traditional IRA calculator changes that. By adding your savings goals, timelines and contribution options, you get a clear, personalized protection of your financial future. It’s like turning on your headlights right after sunset. Suddenly, the road ahead seems brighter.
