Kathryn breaks down why fixed annuities are seeing some of the strongest rates in more than a decade, how rising and falling treasury rates shape the market, and why advisors are giving annuities a fresh look as part of their income planning strategies. She also tackles common misconceptions, explains how carriers are adjusting their products for today\u2019s environment, and shares how longer life expectancies are changing the way clients think about guaranteed income. Kathryn takes us through the growing role of indexed annuities, the impact of new technology on the application process, and what she believes will separate successful advisors from those who get left behind. Whether you\u2019re already working with annuities or you\u2019re looking for ways to better support clients preparing for retirement, Kathryn brings clear, actionable insights you can use right away. Her biggest reminder? Stay tuned in to your clients\u2019 lives, pay attention to the cues they\u2019re giving you, and remember \u2014 you don\u2019t have to know everything, just know who to call. TBA is here to help.
