Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

An Individual Retirement Account, or IRA, is a special savings plan designed to encourage people to save for retirement. UniBank IRAs are a smart way to plan for your retirement.

Will You Outlive Your Money?

It is a distinct (and scary) possibility that you may outlive your money. Americans are living longer and that means money planned for retirement has to stretch further. Many retired people who counted on Social Security and pensions to fund their Golden Years have found they are not enough - even for the basics. That is why more and more people, from all age groups, are planning to supplement their retirement incomes with a UniBank IRA. UniBank IRAs offer safety and security because the first $250,000* per depositor is insured by the FDIC; all deposits above this amount are insured by the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF).

*On October 3, 2008, FDIC deposit insurance temporarily increased from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2009. On May 26, 2009 this increase was extended through December 31, 2013.

Choose From A Variety Of Accounts

Different people, different ages and different financial situations all require different strategies to reach financial retirement goals. A UniBank IRA puts you in control of your investments and our Customer Service Representatives can help you choose the best options for your needs. UniBank IRAs are tailor-made to fit your budget. Some of your contributions may be tax deductible and the interest you earn is protected from taxes until you withdraw the money (and in some cases, contributions are non-deductible, allowing for tax-free withdrawals... read on for more details). Contributions can be made until April 15, or the date of your tax-filing deadline.
