Pacific Life Launches Industry-First Advisory Fixed Annuity with No Withdrawal Charges

() - Taking another step to becoming the annuity company of choice for registered investment advisors (RIAs) and their fee-only advisors, Pacific Life today announced the launch of Pacific Harbor, a new multi-year guaranteed fixed annuity with no withdrawal charges.

“Pacific Harbor is the first fixed annuity developed specifically for the RIA market, with no commission or withdrawal charges,” said Ryan Stowe, assistant vice president, Product Strategy and Innovation at Pacific Life. “It may be a good choice for clients who are close to retirement, have reached their 401(k) or IRA contribution limits, and want the certainty of a guaranteed rate of return. We’ve designed Pacific Harbor to offer a more competitive interest crediting rate for the RIA market than what may be available in other perceived safe money alternatives such as bonds and CDs.”

Highlights of Pacific Harbor fixed annuity include:

  • A fixed rate with a three- or five-year guarantee term
  • No withdrawal charges1
  • No exposure to market volatility
  • Tax-deferred earnings
  • Elimination of annual contract, mortality and expense, and administrative fees

Pacific Harbor not only provides steady growth of assets, but includes the option to create a consistent flow of retirement income or leave a financial legacy.

Pacific Life’s dedicated RIA team, Pacific Life Advisory, is focused on creating competitive, fee-based annuities and helping financial professionals incorporate them into their practices. Simplified technology integrations are a priority, and the company continues to team up with new custodians and insurance-licensing firms to make it as easy as possible to include annuities in clients’ portfolios.

Pacific Harbor is now available through Pacific Life’s Advisory Solutions Desk. For more information or to request a case design, contact an advisory consultant at PacificLifeAdvisory@PacificLife.com.
