Privately Offered Investments IRAs
Investments that are as unique as you.
Privately Offered Investments
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations allow certain privately offered investments to be held in self-directed IRAs. Closely held stocks and LLCs (Limited Liability Companies) are examples of privately offered investments you may be able to hold in your GoldStar Self-Directed IRA. As long as a market value is readily available from an approved valuation agent, your GoldStar Self-Directed IRA can hold any number of privately offered investments in a tax-free or tax-deferred account.
Prohibited transactions
Specific guidelines govern the types of transactions allowed within retirement plans. The IRS specifically prohibits “self-dealing,” whereby transactions are prohibited if investments, in any way, currently benefit the account holder, close family members and a few other persons or entities who are defined as “disqualified persons.” If you have any questions regarding prohibited transactions, please speak with your financial advisor. GoldStar Trust reserves the right of final determination concerning which IRA LLC or closely held assets we will accept within an IRA.
