IRAs
IRAS: TAX-ADVANTAGED RETIREMENT SAVINGS.
Taking advantage of the tax benefits of an IRA can be a smart financial move. Whether you expect your career to last a few more decades, or you’re nearing retirement, an IRA can be a versatile financial solution to enjoy tax benefits* and boost your savings.
Even if you participate in a retirement plan through your employer, you can open an IRA for additional security. You can also roll over funds from previous employer-sponsored plans into an IRA to keep your tax-deferred dollars working for you.

In 1933, our founders created a financial cooperative in Sacramento. Their vision was for hard-working Californians to pool their financial resources to help one another prosper. Today, as one of the nation’s largest credit unions with nearly $19 billion in assets, we continue affirming our mission to deliver financial solutions with value, convenience, and exceptional service to our members.
As a not-for-profit cooperative, we return the credit union’s earnings to our members through higher returns on savings, lower interest rates on loans, and a broad array of free services. We offer our members free mobile and online banking services, 70 conveniently located branches and home loan centers throughout California, and access to 30,000 fee free ATMs nationwide.
We have a long rich history of growth, prudent financial management, and stability. Over the past 90 years our members have relied on us as a trusted partner to keep their money safe and secure, provide value-oriented financial solutions, and be their trusted partner through every step of their financial journey. Our prudent financial management and well-capitalized position ensure that we will be here for our more than 1 million members, our community, and employees for years to come!
