Overview

Today, consumers must shoulder much of the responsibility for managing their own financial futures. They need self-directed options and self-directed ways to accumulate funds for their futures and to safely and efficiently distribute those funds during their retirement. For these purposes, the insurance industry offers a unique vehicle: the annuity.

This course offers a thorough orientation to annuities and their application for long-term asset accumulation and income distribution. The course explains the design and function of these unique products as well as their benefits, costs, and limitations. It examines how annuities are funded and how they grow. Moreover, the course explores the use of annuities for retirement income distribution and examines how these unique products are taxed. The course concludes with an explanation of New York’s amended Regulation 187, which sets forth the duties and obligations of producers for recommendations for both annuities and life insurance to ensure that any policy transaction is in the best interest of the consumer.
