What Is An Annuity?

An annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company for a specified amount of time in which the company promises to make periodic payments to you, starting immediately or at some future time. You buy an annuity either with a single payment or a series of payments called premiums.

Some annuity contracts provide a way to save for retirement. Others can turn your savings into a stream of retirement income. Some other annuity contracts can also do both. If you use an annuity as a savings vehicle and the insurance company delays your pay-out to the future, you have a deferred annuity. If you use the annuity to create a source of retirement income and your payments start right away, you have an immediate annuity. 


<strong>What is A Fee-Based Managed Account?</strong>

What is A Fee-Based Managed Account?

With fee-based asset management, clients pay for financial advice based on the value of their investments – not on the number of transactions that occur. Some investors may prefer this type of account because of the ability to minimize conflicts of interest and removes the possible perception that advice is in some way influenced by the commission made on the transaction. In many ways, fee-based asset management aligns the investor’s and adviser's goals; if the investor's assets grow, adviser compensation increases, and, if assets decline, the adviser’s revenue is reduced.

What Are The Benefits Of A Fee-Based Managed Account?

  • The financial adviser has a fiduciary responsibility to act in their client's best interest
  • Access to thousands of leading money manager and individual accounts to manage
  • Reduction of bias of investment recommendations, since the adviser is not paid commissions
  • In depth performance reporting capabilities by the advisor
  • Transparency in fees
