If you qualify to take a distribution (other than a hardship distribution or a required minimum distribution) and you own American Funds Class A, B or C shares, you can request a direct rollover to an IRA.

Your 1165(e) plan allows you to save a larger tax-deferred amount than you would be able to save through an IRA, depending on your income level. Some 1165(e) plans allow you to apply for a loan from the money contributed to your account, which you cannot do with an IRA.
