About the Service

Exchanges |
If you already own an annuity or insurance Contract, some investment
professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new Contract in
place of the one you own. You should only exchange a Contract you already
own if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both
Contracts, that it is better for you to purchase the new Contract rather than continue to own your existing Contract. |
