IRA Simplified Employee Pension (SEP)

The Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) IRA is popular among self-employed individuals and sole proprietors. Technically, a SEP IRA is established by an employer and the employer can contribute up to 15% of an employee’s pre-tax compensation each year. Because the IRS allows a maximum contribution of $49,000 per year, SEP holders enjoy the ability to contribute much more of their income than with a traditional IRA and still benefit from immediate tax savings and the tax-deferred growth of the account. As with the Traditional IRA, the IRS imposes a 10% penalty for withdrawing your IRA funds prior to the assumed retirement age of 59 ½.

SEPs are great for sole proprietors and small business owners looking to establish these plans for their own benefit. Much like a pension, it provides the self-employed individual a guaranteed retirement income.
