Reminder: SDBA Fall IRA Update to be Held on November 3The SDBA will hold the Fall IRA Update Seminar on November 3, 2022, at the Ramkota Hotel in Sioux Falls, S.D. The IRA Update builds on the attendees’ knowledge of IRA basics to address some of the more complex IRA issues their financial organizations may handle. This course includes how the SECURE Act really changes our two biggest topics: RMDs and death distributions and discusses any pending legislation. This is a specialty session; some previous IRA knowledge is assumed. The instructor Matthew Dickinson uses real-world exercises to help participants apply information to job-related situations. This course is most appropriate for IRA administrators, personal bankers, or member services personnel who have a working knowledge of basic IRA operations and wish to expand their expertise and provide enhanced customer service; financial professionals who recognize that IRAs play an integral role in retirement planning; compliance specialists with procedural oversight of IRA policies and practices; or support personnel responsible for promotional materials that describe the services provided by their financial organizations.
