Financial Term Tuesday | Roth Conversion
A Roth conversion involves moving funds from a traditional retirement account, such as a Traditional IRA or eligible retirement plan, into a Roth IRA. The amount converted is generally included in taxable income for the year of the conversion.
A Roth conversion may be worth considering as part of a broader retirement and tax-planning strategy, but it isn’t appropriate for everyone. Tax rates, income, time horizon, and your overall financial situation should all be considered before making a decision.
Consult with your financial and tax professionals to determine whether a Roth conversion is appropriate for your individual circumstances.
