What Types of Products Can I Sell You?
I am licensed to sell annuities to you in accordance with state law. If I recommend that You buy an annuity, it means I believe that it effectively meets Your financial situation, insurance needs, and financial objectives. Other financial products, such as life insurance or stocks, bonds and mutual funds, also may meet Your needs.
I offer the following products:
Empty Checkbox​ Fixed or Fixed Indexed Annuities
Empty Checkbox​ Variable Annuities

How I'm Paid for My Work:
It's important for You to understand how I'm paid for my work. Depending on the particular annuity You purchase, I may be paid a commission or a fee. Commissions are generally paid to Me by the insurance company while fees are generally paid to Me by the consumer. If You have questions about how I'm paid, please ask Me.
Depending on the particular annuity You buy, I will or may be paid cash compensation as follows:
Empty Checkbox​ Commission, which is usually paid by the insurance company or other sources. If other sources, describe: ____________________________________________________________ .
Empty Checkbox​ Fees (such as fixed amount, an hourly rate, or a percentage of your payment), which are usually paid directly by the customer.
Empty Checkbox​ Other (Describe): ____________________________________________________________ .
If you have questions about the above compensation I will be paid for this transaction, please ask me.
I may also receive other indirect compensation resulting from this transaction (sometimes called “non-cash” compensation), such as health or retirement benefits, office rent and support, or other incentives from the insurance company or other sources.
Note: This disclosure may be adapted to fit the particular business model of the producer. As an example, if the producer only receives commission or only receives a fee from the consumer, the disclosure may be refined to fit that particular situation. This form is intended to provide an example of how to communicate producer compensation, but compliance with the regulation may also be achieved with more precise disclosure, including a written consulting, advising or financial planning agreement.
Note: The acknowledgement and signature should be in immediate proximity to the disclosure language.
By signing below, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the information provided to you in this document.
