Annual Maintenance Fee

Gold IRA Glossary

The yearly charge a custodian collects for administering your IRA, including recordkeeping, statements, and required IRS reporting. Some custodians charge a flat amount regardless of account size, while others scale the fee to the value of your holdings. Comparing flat versus scaled fee structures matters most for larger accounts, where a scaled fee can grow substantially.
