IRA Certificate Accounts

No matter your start, we’ll take you further.

A big dream doesn’t have to come with big risk.

An IRA Certificate Account is a secure way to save for your golden years. Similar to a traditional certificate account, your funds are locked in for a predetermined term while earning higher dividend rates. 

To open an IRA Certificate Account, visit a Hughes branch near you or call us at 520-794-8341.

Please note that Hughes does not allow Required Minimum Distributions (RMD's) from IRA Certificate Accounts.
