Online resource meant to help consumers match annuities products to needs. In another of its efforts to educate the general public about variable annuities, Annuity IQ company has released 10 Variable Annuity Tips, a free online resource.
"We offer a lot of free and informative information on our website, but we realized we were missing something and that's where the 10 Tips came in," says Scott DeMonte, owner of Fayetteville, N.Y.-based Annuity IQ. "These are basic tips on what to look for in a variable annuity product and designed to give the consumer an edge in examining variable annuities." OK, OK DeMonte says Annuity IQ takes an "unbiased and independent approach in examining variable annuities." Products and free resources such as the "10 Tips" resource are meant to" counter the misinformation that is rampant in the variable annuities marketplace," he adds. "There are no devastating secrets behind annuity products," says DeMonte. "If there were secrets so devastating to the industry, why isn't the mainstream media on it instead of Joe Blow from Timbuktu writing about it? We want and do provide real information, honest information." You have to register with Annuity IQ to see the tips. --FWR .
