We already have a provider for annuity rescue, what advantage does DPL bring?

The core premise of annuity rescue is to reduce product cost when possible. DPL takes that premise further by looking to not only reduce cost, but also meet other needs in the financial plan. Clients often want low-cost, guaranteed income, tax efficient withdrawal strategies and/or principal protection, and DPL can provide these solutions. And, DPL's suite of Product Discovery Tools makes it easy to evaluate and compare clients' existing annuities to determine the solution that best meets the needs of each client. 

My firm doesn’t address annuities clients already own, why should we?

Clients often can save thousands of dollars in product fees when it makes sense to move from a commissioned insurance product to a low-cost, commission-free product. In addition to providing potentially improved financial outcomes to your clients, offering insurance solutions as part of a holistic financial planning process enables you to expand services, potentially attract new clients, and increase AUM.

My client owns a variable annuity, if they exchange it, do they need to get another VA?

No. A 1035 exchange can be used to move from a variable annuity into any other type of annuity. Your DPL Consultant can work with you to find the product that best fits with the needs of your client’s financial plan.

Does DPL perform analysis of annuities my clients already own?

DPL provides proprietary tools and the support of our team of licensed consultants to make it easy to evaluate clients' existing annuity policies. Using our Annuity Comparison Calculator, you can quickly compare a client's annuity to commission-free options to determine if it makes sense to exchange the policy for a no-load annuity that may be able to achieve client goals more efficiently.
