Non-Qualified Employee Stock Option inside Roth IRA
Can a private equity placement qualified IRA custodian purchase Non-Qualified employee stock options on behalf of the employee? Ordinary income on exercise paid by employee? Stock component paid by ROTH IRA custodian? OR employee must do ALL personally – can’t use the qualified Roth custodian at all??

NQSOs are not allowed in any IRA. It would be a prohibited transaction (self dealing).
