We will discuss two types of annuities: single-premium immediate annuities (SPIAs) and deferred-income annuities (DIAs). The goals of the session include answering the following questions:

  1. How can advisors determine whether either of those annuities is appropriate for a client?
  2. What are the red flags to watch out for that would indicate an annuity is inappropriate?
  3. What is the best way to present the pros and cons of annuities to clients?
  4. How can advisors determine if they can replicate or approximate the cash flows of those annuities with traditional investment products? (for example, comparing a SPIA to a bond ladder or a DIA to a zero-coupon bond)
  5. What is the best way to purchase those annuities?
  6. How do I systematically incorporate SPIA/DIA into client recommendations?
  7. If I’m a fee-only advisor, can I advise on portfolios that include annuities?
  8. Why do annuities feel expensive?
  9. How do you overcome the annuity illiquidity objection?
  10. How do I systematically communicate to clients the value of the income stream they’re buying with SPIA/DIA when the brokerage/custodial statement doesn’t currently cite this metric?
