What is an IRA? 

An IRA is a savings account set up by your financial institution, which allows you to save funds for your retirement with tax-free growth or on a tax-deferred basis. A self-directed IRA gives you complete control over your investment decisions while keeping the tax benefits this account provides. IRAs help you diversify your retirement savings by choosing various asset classes to put your money into, including precious metals.  

How to Get Started with Precious Metal Investments Within an IRA? 

1. Choose a Self-Directed IRA Custodian. A custodian holds your self-directed IRA. Custodians can be banks, trust companies, or entities approved by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Self-directed IRA custodians allow investors to invest in alternative assets, including precious metals.
2. Find a Precious Metals Seller. Choose a precious metals company to buy your bullion from. You will need to direct the IRA custodian to send money to the dealer to purchase gold, silver, platinum, or palladium.
3. Pick a Product to Purchase. Consult with a representative from your chosen precious metals company to discuss the right product for you.
4. Select a Depository. Precious metals invested in a self-directed IRA must be stored by an IRC (Internal Revenue Code) approved facility. You may choose this facility on your own, or your metals seller can guide you in selecting one that works for you. 
5. Complete the Purchase. Once you have selected both a custodian and a seller, chosen the product(s) you wish to purchase, and found a depository to store your metals, you are ready to complete your purchase. After the purchase, the IRA custodian will facilitate the payments, and the precious metal seller will ship your metals to your chosen storage facility.
