That Annuity Show157 - Let the Guaranty Fund Genie Out of the Bottle With Harry Stout and Bruce SaulThis episode is for producers only. One of the biggest pain points in explaining annuities is describing the nature of the product guarantees.

However, in an age of Google and best interest standards, does this rule still make sense. Today we have two guests who recently wrote a story for ThinkAdvisor on this exact topic.
