Q. What type of investment can be used as an IRA?
A. Almost all investments are technically eligible for inclusion in an IRA
account, (see
ineligible investment assets for a discussion of unauthorized investments),
but some are more appropriate than others from a financial investment and/or tax
perspective. Most authorized IRA custodians will advise you of any restrictions they
place on your access to various investments. You may find that in order to participate
in selected investment areas, you need to open IRA accounts with specialized IRA custodians
who cater to that industry.
