May 2018 Annuity Update Show

May 02, 2018

Our May Annuity Update Show is blooming with opportunities for your practice. The show features a fantastic fixed index annuity, an update to the MYGA wars saga, and two educational pieces that will help you increase your fixed annuity sales in 2018.


A top performing 7 year fixed index annuity has yet ANOTHER rate increase! The annual point-to-point cap has been increased to 6.25%. That’s paired with up to 6.5% commission on a 7-year surrender charge schedule. Not only is this a huge win for your clients, it’s a huge win for you!

The MYGA storm continues and rates are flying everywhere! We have a 5 year MYGA that has topped the charts at 3.65%. That rate is hovering just above another top performing carrier, who has a 3.6% 5 year. These competitive rates are constantly changing! So if you’re interested, you better act fast!

Next, we have two great educational pieces that will help you increase your index annuity sales! First, we have a historical returns comparison. This article can help your clients understand the different options available in today's fixed index annuities.

Second, we have an article from Roger Ibbotson. Ibbotson argues that “fixed indexed annuities have the potential to outperform bonds in the near future and smooth the return pattern of a portfolio”. There has NEVER been a more important time to understand how these products compare to the other choices your clients are being presented.

For more information on these products and articles, check out the May 2018 Annuity Update Show or give Brokers Alliance a call at 480.296.0169. We can’t wait to hear from you!
