Rollover Business Start-Up (ROBS) Strategy Big Winner in Republican Proposed Tax Plan, According to Adam Bergman – IRA Financial Group Partner
New York, NY (PRWEB) November 03, 2017 -- Adam Bergman, a partner with the IRA Financial Group, the leading provider of “checkbook control” self-directed IRA LLC and Solo 401(k) plan solutions, expects to see strong demand for the rollover business start-up solution or ROBS. When it comes to using retirement funds to invest in a business involving the retirement account holder or any of his or her lineal descendants (“disqualified persons”) there is generally only one legal way to do it and it involves the purchase of C Corporation stock (qualifying employer securities) by a 401(k) qualified retirement plan. The structure is known as a “rollover business start-up” or “ROBS”. The ROBS arrangement typically involves rolling over a pre-tax IRA or 401(k) plan account into a newly established 401(k) plan, which is sponsored by a “C” Corporation and then investing the rollover funds in the stock of the “C” Corporation. The individual retirement account holder can then earn a reasonable salary as an employee of the business. The advantage of the ROBS solution is that it does allow one to use all their pre-tax IRA or 401(k) funds to buy a business that they will be involved in personally as an employee without tax or penalty. Nevertheless, one of the main downsides of using the ROBS strategy is the high corporate tax rate on C Corporation profits, which currently has a maximum tax rate of 35%. However, one of the Republican tax plan proposals is a reduction in the corporate tax rate to 25%. “The reduction in the maximum corporate tax rate to 25% should make the rollover business start-up” or “ROBS more appealing to individuals seeking to use retirement funds to buy or finance a new business or franchise,” stated Adam Bergman, a partner with the IRA Financial Group.
