Plan for the “Perfect Storm” of Retirement
What if you could help give them financial security in this uncertain environment by: Providing your clients with guaranteed income Eliminating the worry of outliving assets Helping to ensure basic income needs are met, allowing for greater investment flexibility Life Expectancy Healthcare Costs Asset Preservation Market Uncertainty Inflation Retirees and those a few years away from retirement face a “perfect storm” – a combination of factors that make careful planning for retirement so critical. At retirement, many clients will face: Fewer Guarantees than previous generations Shrinking social security benefits Fewer pension plans Higher health care costs Longer Life Expectancy meaning a potentially longer retirement Increasing lifestyle costs These factors can leave a lot unknown. Many have saved for retirement, but do they have a plan in place to ensure that their savings last through their entire retirement? Read “What if you could help give them…” Today, we’ll look at why income annuities play such a critical role in planning for retirement, and how they can provide retirement peace of mind.

The Retirement Market Has a Considerable Need for Income
Income Now Income Soon Population by Age Deferred Income Annuities Immediate Income Annuities Income Later Here’s why income annuities are important to you and your clients. There’s a clear business opportunity here. When we look at the retiree and pre-retiree market, we see that: Retirees need income now Pre-retirees need income later. Those further away from retirement still need to consider their future income needs There’s an income annuity that meets the income needs of these markets – because they’re all planning for income in retirement. We’ll see today how deferred income annuities provide future income to clients who need income later or income soon. Immediate income annuities are a viable option for people who need income now. You’ll be able to identify clients that would benefit from these products, and then we’ll give you the tools to close the sale. The looming concern, however, among the retirement market is “Now that I’ve accumulated these assets, how can I make sure they last through my retirement?” This is a valid concern. Retirement poses a number risks – different risks than those faced during accumulation.

Retirees Face Different Financial Risks During Retirement versus Before Retirement
Accumulation Risks Investment risk Sequence of Returns Risk Longevity Risk Withdrawal Rate Risk Distribution Risks Investment Risk Sequence of Returns Risk Longevity Risk Withdrawal Rate Risk x x x Retirees face a new set of risks once they’ve accumulated their assets and now need to make them last. The amount of assets held by retirees and pre-retirees is in the trillions. Luckily, income annuities help minimize or eliminate these risks. Investment risk & sequence of returns risk: Market losses early in retirement can significantly impact your retirement income distribution. These losses can cause the amount of total assets to drop significantly, affecting your future gains. The income generated by income annuities is uncorrelated to the market. Income payments are guaranteed by the issuing company. Longevity risk: With longer life expectancy, many retirees fear they will outlive their savings. To put it into context, there’s a 50% chance that a healthy 65-year old male will live to 85, a healthy 65-year old female will live to 88, and at least one of them will live to 92. Lifetime income annuities provide guaranteed payments for the annuitant’s entire lifetime. Your client will not outlive their savings. Per Annuity 2000 mortality tables. Withdrawal rate risk: Common systematic withdrawal plans may not be sustainable. Income annuities provide a structured way to receive guaranteed lifetime income.

Key Considerations for Income Annuities
Immediate or deferred income annuities Guaranteed income for a lifetime or for a fixed period1 Single or joint lives Stable, reliable cash flow via guaranteed payments2 No market risk Return of premium in the form of income payments or death benefit Income payments that can start now or in the future Investment discretion Market growth potential Surrenders, but many income annuities offer liquidity features Income Annuities Provide: Income Annuities Do Not Allow for: First, it’s important to define what an income annuity is. Income annuities can be classified as immediate or deferred – meaning payments begin within one year of issue, or at a later date. Depending on the product and option selected, client may receive income for life or for a fixed period. Fixed period annuities are useful when income is needed for a specific period of time. Lifetime income annuities are designed to provide a “pension-like” stream of income that’s guaranteed for life. Explain chart – what income annuities provide versus what they don’t. It’s important to understand what an income annuity won’t offer a client. 1 Only life contingent income annuities provide income for life. Fixed period income annuities provides income for a certain period only. 2 Guarantees are backed by the claims paying ability of the issuer. For Representative Use Only.

Cash Refund Payout Option Allows for Return of Premium
What if the annuitant dies soon after buying the annuity? Lifetime income annuities with a “cash refund” payout option guarantee that the policyowner(s), or their beneficiaries, will receive the premium back, no matter what. Cash Refund Payout Option1 $1,000,000 premium at a 5.9% Payout ($58,988 annual income). Payout includes both interest and return of premium. $1M paid to beneficiaries Annuitant dies before income start date $118K paid to Annuitant $882K paid to beneficiaries $1,179,800 paid to Annuitant ($0 paid to beneficiaries) Annuitant dies 2 years after income start date Annuitant dies years after income start date Return of $1M premium Income payments exceed premium paid. Many folks’ first concern about annuities is that you lose your money if you die soon. Guaranteed income annuities from NYLIAC come with an ability to select a Cash Refund option (describe example). In fact, the lion’s share of our sales has been with the Cash refund option. Now that you can be confident that there are ways to receive your premium back, let’s take a closer look at what income payments are comprised of. 1 GLI with Cash Refund option, male age 65, $1,000,000 premium,. Rates are as of 6/4/2013 and are subject to change. Provides income payments beginning on the income start date and guaranteed for one life (or two lives if a Joint Life policy). This option guarantees that, if the annuitant (or both annuitants for a Joint Life policy) dies before the income payments received equal the premium paid, the beneficiary(ies) will receive a lump sum equaling the premium, less all income payments received. If the total payments received prior to annuitant’s death equal or exceed the premium paid for the policy, no payments will be made to beneficiaries upon death. For Representative Use Only.

The Income-Generating Power of Income Annuity Payout Rates
Payout rates are not interest rates. Income payments are comprised of: Return of Premium Each payment includes the return of a portion of the original premium made by the policy owner. 3. Mortality Credit Each payment includes income that is directly linked to the current age of the annuitant. This income comes from the mortality credit pool. 2. Interest There is a portion of each payment that comes from interest earned from the insurance company’s investment of premiums. In most instances, lifetime income annuities offer better payouts than comparable fixed income product because the income clients receive is comprised of three components. READ SLIDE SEGUE: The mortality credit portion is especially beneficial. Mortality credits are the income engine of an income annuity product. Premiums paid by those who die earlier than expected contribute to the gains of the overall pool and provide a higher credit to survivors than could be achieved through individual investments outside of the pool. It is a mechanism for reallocating the annuity contributions of holders who die to those who survive. For Representative Use Only. Not to be reproduced or shown to the public.

The Anatomy of Income Changes Over Time
This chart demonstrates that as a client ages, their payout amount will remain level, but the portion that comes from interest vs. return of premium vs. mortality credits will change over time: Earlier on, payments are comprised mostly of return of premium and interest (blue and yellow). Many investments provide income in a similar way. The key difference with an income annuity is this green area – income annuities provide mortality credits that no other type of investment can give you. Mortality credits is what allows you to maximize your payout while providing income for life. We see here that mortality credits make up the biggest portion of an annuity payment as a client ages. Source: New York Life actuarial data and methodology. GLI payments based on rates as of 8/3/12, and are subject to change. Graphical representation based on an example introduced by Dr. David Blake. Lifetime income annuities can deliver higher payouts because they subsidize those who live longer with the capital of those who don’t live as long (mortality credits), in addition to distributing interest and premium.

Mortality Credits Power the Payout Rate
A Simple Way to Understand Mortality Credits1 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Amount to be paid out from Mortality Credit Pool $500 Clients still living 5 4 3 2 1 Payment per person from Mortality Credit Pool $100 $125 $176 $250 Cumulative payment for surviving clients $225 $401 $651 $1,151 To better understand how the money in the mortality credit pool is distributed to clients in their income payments, consider this simplified example. Keep in mind that this is only an example of how the mortality credit pool works, in terms of distribution to clients, and considers no other factors and benefits such as return of premium and compounded interest. The numbers used here are very simplified and are for educational purposes only, to give you a better understanding of how mortality credits work. IMPORTANT TO READ BEFORE EXPLAINING SLIDE: Let’s assume five clients, all the same age, contribute $500 each to the Mortality Credit Pool for a total of $2,500. At the end of each year, $500 will be distributed among the surviving clients. EXPLAIN SLIDE. SEGUE: Let’s look these payouts compared to some other products. A client’s payout from the mortality credit pool will increase with age. Mortality credits are designed to provide income should you live beyond life expectancy. 1 This example only considers the mortality credit pool and no other factors.

No Penalty For immediate annuities paying over life expectancy, payments received before age 59 ½ are generally not subject to the IRS-imposed 10% penalty. May Satisfy RMDs Income annuity payments from qualified contracts may satisfy RMDs each year under the current federal income tax. Client may still be subject to RMDs on qualified funds outside of the income annuity. This is provided for informational purposes only. Clients should consult with their own tax advisor regarding their specific situation. Next, let’s point out a few key considerations concerning income annuities and taxation.

Cover Basic Expenses Using Guaranteed Income
Use guaranteed income sources to cover basic expense. It’s possible that Social Security and pension benefits won’t be enough – an income annuity can help cover this shortfall. In this example, consider a 65-year-old man who needs $65,000 a year to cover his basic expenses in retirement. His pension and Social Security benefits will guarantee him $36,000 per year, but he still needs an additional $29,000 per year to cover his basic expenses.

Use additional income from guaranteed sources plus income from other investments to pay for discretionary expenses.

This example assumes an annual income of $29,000 beginning one year after the policy is purchased. Annual income amounts are based on rates in effect as of 5/6/2013. Rates are subject to change, and payout amount will vary depending on premium amount, age, gender, the number of lives the policy covers (either one or two), and payment option. Actual amounts are dependent on interest rates in effect when the policy is purchased. Other payment options are also available. Annuity payments consist of interest and return of premium.

Invest Conservatively While Generating Income

Income annuities may pay out at a higher rate than other conservative income generating vehicles because each payment consists of interest and return of premium. Plus, these assets will no longer be subject to market volatility and will provide income for life. Total Income $498,892 at age 100 $100,000 $300,000 Use $300,000 to purchase a Joint GLI $19,188 per year for life Clients who want to move assets into more conservative investments may be best suited to move this money into an income annuity, which may pay out at a higher rate than other conservative income generating vehicles. Plus, these assets will no longer be subject to market volatility and will provide income for life. Payouts include interest and return of premium, other conservative investment options may provide more liquidity. 1 Annuity payout based on a husband and wife, both age 75, GLI with Cash Refund, rates as of 6/4/2013.

Rollover Assets in 401(k) to Generate Income
Turn “idle” money into guaranteed retirement income. And by rolling over money earlier, clients can take advantage of the power of deferral. A $100,000 rollover in GFI at age 59… …generates annual income of $7,619 for life, with payments starting at age 65. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Age 65 Age 70 Age 75 Age 80 Another way to capture this market is through 401(k) and similar rollovers. This is also a great way to uncover other assets held by your clients. NOTE: This example uses GFI and demonstrates the power of deferral, but both GLI and GFI great ways to turn these invested assets into what it was intended for – guaranteed retirement income. * Estimated based on data from Cerulli, Quantitative Update (2010) and IRA Rollover and Retention (2008).

Protect Against Longevity Risk

This may allow a client to do more with those assets because there is no longer a longevity risk associated with that money. 38% payout rate after 20 year deferral Income amounts include interest, return of premium, and mortality credits. . For clients who may be concerned about outliving their assets, the Guaranteed Future Income Annuity II can provide a stream of income starting much later in retirement. This helps to protect against risks that longevity places on a portfolio. Here’s an example: A 65-year-old retired client has $1 million in assets. 83% of his assets are in a traditional portfolio that he intends to spend down between age 65 and 85. To ensure he doesn’t outlive his savings, however, he invests 17% of his assets in a Guaranteed Future Income Annuity II at age 65, electing to start receiving income payments at age 85. These payments will last his entire life. Guaranteed. He plans on enjoying a long retirement and the Guaranteed Future Income Annuity II allows him to spend his money between 65 and 85 without concern for how long he might live. SEGUE: These next few concepts are especially useful for the GFI product, because you’ll be looking to work with clients who are a few years out from retirement but still concerned with securing their retirement income. Please Note: This hypothetical example is for illustrative purposes only. Illustration is based on rates as of 5/20/2013 with a Life with a Cash Refund option. Rates are subject to change and payout will vary with age, gender, payout option selected, and premium amount. Actual amounts are dependent upon interest rates in effect at time of policy issue. Income payments include return of premium, interest, and mortality credits. Income shown from age 65 to age 85 is based on a hypothetical systematic withdrawal from the $830,000 portfolio.

Use Income Annuities to Maximize Social Security Payout
Social Security benefits can be deferred until age 70. For each year you wait, the benefit amount increases by 8%.1 Income annuities can fill the income gap by providing the necessary income Social Security would have provided. Consider an individual who can start receiving Social Security benefits of $1,000 a month for life starting at age 62. If benefits are delayed to age 70, monthly income will increase to $1,640. 64% Increase Many retirees and pre-retirees rely on social security benefits to provide income during retirement. A client can maximize those benefits by deferring payment until age 70. Here we consider an individual who can start withdrawing Social Security benefits of $1,000 a month for life starting at age 62. If withdrawals are delayed to age 70, monthly income will increase to $1,640. An income annuity can be used to bridge the gap between retirement and age 70, providing the income that social security would have provided or a similar level of income.
