Annuities
Just as life insurance protects your clients against the risks of dying too soon, an annuity protects your client against the risks of living too long. Simply stated, an annuity helps ensure that your client will not run out of money.
Today’s annuity market, however, is anything but simple. If you read the consumer financial press –and believe everything you read − you would think annuities are some product of an evil financial mastermind. At The Ark Group, we understand that nothing could be further from the truth.
Having said that, we also understand that today’s markets offer an extremely wide range of options – some great and some far from it – and that much due diligence needs to be conducted to determine the right annuity from the right company for the right client.
Our experienced team at The Ark Group, with more than 70 years of combined annuity experience, are eager to help you navigate these complex waters and start building your annuity business. The Ark Group will help educate you on each kind of annuity, its role within retirement planning, and advise you on the most innovative ways to properly protect and diversify the fixed portion of your client's portfolio.
Whether your client is in the asset accumulation or asset preservation stages of life, The Ark Group can help you research and find the appropriate annuity for him or her.
