TIAA Issues New IRA Contracts With Lower Guarantee

That free lunch that TIAA was offering...gone, for the most part. Up until October 10th you could open an IRA with TIAA-CREF and if you qualified you could get a 3% minimum crediting rate and guarantee - with full liquidity. Those days are gone (thank you Ben Bernanke). The new minimum rate is somewhere between 1 and 3% - my experience is that it is now 1.25%. It still has full liquidity, so its still a reasonable option, its just not an amazing option (like it was before).
