Precious Metals IRA

Your Precious Metals IRA.

Diversifying a Portfolio with Gold , Silver , Platinum, or Palladium

Many individuals are funding a self-directed IRA with gold, silver, and platinum bullion bars and coins. Diversifying your investment portfolio with precious metals is a smart way to balance and improve the overall performance of your retirement portfolio. Paper denominated assets like those found in traditional and Roth IRAs and 401Ks can lose value when government fiscal and monetary policy are not sound. Adding a percentage of gold, silver or platinum in a new precious metal IRA can compensate for paper losses.

Regardless of which legal framework you prefer to use (as shown in the section below, the process of getting physical precious metals into your 401k or IRA is simple:

  • Open or create a custodian account (see section below for options)
  • Fund the account
  • Buy precious metals from Aureus Demo Site
There are two main ways that individuals can establish and get physical precious metals into a custodian or retirement account (401k or IRA). There are benefits to both methods, in our opinion. It is up to you to decide which suits your needs better.

Self Directed Trust/LLC

Establish a self directed 401k trust or LLC where you are the trustee or owner of the LLC. Fund it from existing 401ks or IRAs. The metal is in YOUR control. There may be annual fees payable to local/state or the federal government. Once funded, you would simply contact us to buy your precious metals.
