By now, you know our Enhanced Choice Index annuity offers growth, flexibility and security to your clients. In our new video, we spotlight the ECI’s multiple index and crediting options, including an index that appeals to more socially conscious investors.
Markets were volatile in the third quarter as investors tried to guess how the Fed would act to address inflation. While the current choppiness may continue in the near future, we still believe in the market over the long run.

This can give your clients less exposure to market fluctuations, while keeping the potential for increased growth. Watch our video to learn more.
