We offer a variety of accounts to help you save and invest, including Traditional and Roth IRAs. Axos Invest offers:

• Individual Personal Investment Account

• Traditional IRA

• Roth IRA

Just keep in mind, you do have to be a U.S. resident to open an Axos Invest Managed Portfolios account.

We work tirelessly to offer security features to protect your personal information and accounts. It starts with an in-depth vetting process to confirm your identity.

We're dedicated to our clients’ security. Your information is fully encrypted and securely stored. Check out our Privacy Policy for more detail.

You need to deposit a minimum of $500 to open an Axos Invest Managed Portfolios account. We recommend setting up an auto-deposit to put money into your Managed Portfolios account on a regular schedule.

After you link your bank account, it takes approximately 1-3 business days for your bank to transfer your first deposit and one more business day for Managed Portfolios to build your portfolio. If you log in during this period, you'll see your account is still pending. We'll send you an email letting you know when your money is invested and ready to view.

Your account may be pending because your micro-deposits haven’t been confirmed or because we need additional information from you to verify your account. Log in to our platform for instructions. Also check to see if we've emailed you. If you have any confusion, please reach out to [email protected].

A goal is a financial target. You can save toward multiple targets, including retirement, deposits for a new home, weddings, or simply building wealth.

That’s entirely up to you. We offer several types of goals: Emergency Fund, Retirement, Build Wealth, New Home, and more.

Goal recommendations are based on several factors, including but not limited to your income, net worth, and time horizon. Remember to keep your Managed Portfolios account up to date to receive the most accurate recommendations!

Axos Invest charges an annual 0.24% advisory fee on all accounts over $500. If your end of month account balance is less than $500, the fee is $1 per month.

1/12 of 0.24% of your account balance (or $1 if your end of month account balance is less than $500) is withdrawn from your account each month. The fee is charged retroactively for the previous month – i.e., your January fee is deducted in February.

Axos Invest auto-deducts your fee from your account. If you don’t have enough cash available in your Managed Portfolio account to cover the fee, we may need to sell some securities.

Axos Invest doesn’t charge closing fees for your taxable personal investment account. However, if you close an Axos Invest IRA, there is a $40 fee. Our clearing firm, Axos Clearing, may charge closing or transfer fees.

Axos Clearing is a clearing corporation that handles custody, execution, confirmation, settlement, and delivery of your funds and securities in your portfolio. Closing fees are only charged once Axos Invest or Axos Clearing receives your request to transfer or close your account.

You can add these features at no cost.

Here’s how to set up a recurring deposit from your Managed Portfolios account.

Once you log in online or through the app:

• Navigate to your account.

• Choose Move Money.

• Select Transfer Frequency and choose how often you’d like to make the transfer.

• Follow the remaining prompts.

You don’t have to set up recurring deposits, but you can. Scheduling regular deposits can help you stay on track for your financial goals.

• Log in to your account.

• Navigate to your account and select Move Money.

• Choose Scheduled Transfers.

• Select the Settings button next to the transfer you wish to remove.

• Follow the remaining prompts.

We get that sometimes circumstances change, but here are some tips to keep in mind. Making regular deposits into your Managed Portfolio account keeps you on track to reach your milestones on time. Recurring deposits also help with dollar cost averaging, which means that over time, your account buys more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high.

Whether you met your goal or need a cash injection, withdrawing money from your account requires just a few simple steps:

• Log into your account online or in the app.

• Select your Managed Portfolios account.

• Choose Move Money.

• Select your Managed Portfolio account for Transfer From.

• Follow the remaining prompts.

After you schedule your withdrawal, it usually takes 3-5 business days for the transfer to complete.

Several factors can influence the answer to this question. First, did the sale of your stocks create a profit or a loss? If you sustained a loss, you might be able to claim it on your taxes. Are you withdrawing funds from a tax-advantaged retirement account?

However, if you profited from the sale and withdrawal, you might be subject to short- or long-term capital gains. Generally, if you held the stock for less than a year, any profits are short-term capital gains and taxed at your regular income tax rate. If you held the stock for a year or longer, your profits are long-term capital gains. The tax rates for long-term capital gains vary depending on your taxable income.

Please note that if you withdraw funds from a retirement portfolio, such as an IRA or 401(k), there may be some penalties, depending on your age. The penalty tax is usually 10% of the taxable amount you withdraw if you’re younger than 59 ½. Additionally, you may need to include any withdrawals in your taxable income and pay income tax on the distribution amount.

There are some exceptions. Make sure to talk to your tax advisor or accountant for personalized advice.
