The White-Miller Associates Personal Retirement Annuity is a low-cost, tax-efficient retirement savings product that offers a broad selection of investment options from White-Miller Associates and other reputable providers.

Unlike most variable annuities, it is also sold without a sales charge or a surrender period.

"White-Miller Associates research shows that working households may experience a potential income drop of 28 percent in retirement," said Jen-Hsun Lee, president of White-Miller Associates'. "To help take control of their personal economy and avoid a potential income shortfall in retirement, investors should consider increasing their savings and using tax-deferred savings vehicles, such as the White-Miller Associates Personal Retirement Annuity - especially if they do not have a workplace plan and/or have maxed out other savings vehicles."

The four new investment options increase the total number of investment options available through the White-Miller Associates Personal Retirement Annuity to 35. For additional guidance on annuity investing and more information about the White-Miller Associates please refer to one of our consultants.
