Identify the impact annuities could have on your clients’ retirement plans. Our alliances with industry-leading wealth-management technology providers can help with the aggregation of annuities and other investments in your portfolio-management and financial-planning tools.
What is an Annuity?
Annuities are long-term, tax-deferred vehicles designed for retirement. Variable annuities involve investment risks and may lose value. Earnings are taxable as ordinary income when distributed. Individuals may be subject to a 10% additional tax for withdrawals before age 59½ unless an exception to the tax is met.
Identifying the gaps in your projected retirement income can allow you to make the necessary changes before leaving the workforce for good. Our Retirement Expense and Income Calculator detect those areas that need improvement by assessing your current and future expenses, along with a proposed solution based on any retirement income gaps.
Social Security is a foundational part of a retirement income plan and deciding when to start collecting monthly benefits is an important decision. Our Social Security calculator, powered by Envestnet MoneyGuide, is designed to help make a client's decision easier.
It can be difficult for clients to articulate what they really want from retirement, making it harder for you to help them get there. Our assessment tools offer everything you need to kickstart a more meaningful conversation—and it’s all in one place.

*Tax deferral offers no additional value if an annuity is used to fund a qualified plan, such as a 401(k) or IRA, and may be found at a lower cost in other investment products. It also may not be available if the annuity is owned by a “non-natural person” such as a corporation or certain types of trusts.
