Last year, over $80 billion went into FIAs and RILAs. But, let's be honest, most of us would be hard-pressed to answer questions from a regulator about how the indexes driving these products work and why you recommended one over another.

Are you subject to a "best interest" or fiduciary standard for your clients? Are you recommending FIA, RILA or FIUL? Then this webinar is for you.

Can you answer, to a client’s satisfaction:

• What makes indexes tick?
• Which indexes are designed to illustrate well but don't have much chance of performing in the future?
• What are the caps and fees in these indexes (yes, caps and fees in the index in addition to the product chassis)?
• What the rules are for which assets to holding and when to switching?
• How do risk and volatility control work?

You don’t have to guess or rely strictly on carrier sales talk anymore. Join us July 28 at 3:30 pm CT when Laurence Black examines "FIA and Annuity Indices 2021: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly."

Our Presenter uses his insider experience and lifts back the curtain so you can not only see how they work but shares the data in an unbiased, third party expert opinion on every index on the market.
