Request for Public Comment on the Process for Transferring myRA® Account Balances to Private Sector Roth IRAs

The United States Department of the Treasury's Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service) has developed a new Treasury electronic retirement savings bond to give working individuals (particularly those not currently saving) a new opportunity to begin saving for retirement.\1\ The bond, targeted to new savers who lack access to an employer-sponsored retirement plan, is available as an investment for eligible individuals who choose to save in Roth IRAs maintained by Treasury's financial agent. A Roth IRA invested in the new bond is called a myRA[supreg] (short for my Retirement Account). Account holders can transfer their myRA account balance into a private sector Roth IRA of their choosing at any time.\2\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
