Add Shares to a New Fund in an Existing IRA Account
If you would like to invest money in an existing account, but in a Fund that you haven’t previously invested, you can use same previously mentioned four methods, but you must verify that you have read the prospectus for the new Fund. The prospectus includes important information on a fund including management fees and expenses, and financial reports present aspects of a fund’s operations, financial condition and performance during the period. Read it carefully before investing.
Add Shares by Mail
Mail a completed investment slip for a particular fund (which you received in your account statement) or a letter of instruction with a check.
A letter of instruction must include your account number, the name(s) of the registered owner(s), the Fund(s) that you want to purchase and a declaration that you have read the prospectus for the new Fund. If you are using an investment slip, the statement in regards to the prospectus can be written directly on the investment slip.
