    • Beyond the Illustration: How to Use IUL Responsibly in Today's Markets

    • June 13, 2012 at 1:00 pm ET
    • This discussion will feature industry experts who will explore the ways carriers market, price, and hedge Indexed UL products. We will also address methods for determining illustrated rates, comparing products, and positioning Indexed UL against other product offerings. We know that some agents and distributors are skeptical of the claims made by some carriers about the long-term performance prospects of Indexed UL products. But, we also know that Indexed UL can be a powerful protection tool. Like any product, it just needs to be illustrated responsibly and sold only when appropriate to meet a client’s needs and risk tolerance. Our aim is to equip financial professionals with the knowledge they need to make informed choices about how they can best incorporate Indexed UL into their practice.

    • Index-Linked Products & The Future of Insurance: 4 Things You Must Know

    • March 29, 2012 at 2:00 pm ET
    • Never has the need for income and asset protection been so apparent. The economic crisis of 2008 and resulting volatility have investors desperately searching for something (anything) that offers a safe haven. Now that money markets are averaging 0.13% percent, not even going to cash, the ultimate volatility hedge, is without risk. What’s to be done? Indexed Linked Insurance Products (FIAs and IULs) are gaining in popularity, as more clients realize their uses as solutions. The “upside participation/downside protection” implicit in the product’s design are critical in helping clients achieve an affordable quality of life in retirement. Our panel of experts will discuss the structure of the S&P 500 product, the index to which it’s traditionally tied, new innovations in design (i.e. currently, 60% of indexed products are elected with GLWBs on them) and how agents—and more importantly clients—can benefit.
