\"\"In a press release<\/a> last week, Great American Life Insurance Company\u00ae announced that their fee-based annuity <\/a>will now be available through Brookstone Capital Management (BCM). The annuity product will allow BCM advisors to offer clients more diversification for their portfolios in order to manage risk. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to add a leader like Brookstone Capital to the growing list of RIAs that understand the value insurance adds to a portfolio by helping clients to achieve better results,\u201d said Joe Maringer, National Sales Vice President at Great American Life. <\/span><\/p>\n

Index Protector 7<\/span> <\/span>is one of the first fee-based annuities<\/a> to hit the market, offering competitive earning potential, tax-deferred growth and a return of premium guarantee. Consumers also have the option to add the low-cost Income Keeper<\/span> <\/span>rider, which provides lifetime income payments that could increase each year. BCM is one of nearly 50 Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) positioned to sell the product. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs fixed income yields remain near all-time lows, advisors may be looking for new ways to help clients generate higher returns and offset the impact when rates do rise,\u201d Maringer added. \u201cThe Index Protector 7 may be an attractive alternative to traditional fixed income offerings by providing greater growth opportunity and protection from market downturns. <\/span><\/p>\n

BCM Founder and CEO, Dean Zayed, claims that the addition of the Index Protector 7 was an easy decision in that it adds even more options to their diverse platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBrookstone has always been ahead of changes and trends in the industry,\u201d Zayed stated. \u201cGiving our 350+ affiliated advisors access to this innovative product is a testament to our belief in fee-based annuities, as well as our commitment to ensuring they have the cutting-edge tools needed to serve each and every client.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Tony Compton, Vice President of Broker\/Dealer and RIA Sales at Great American Life, added, \u201cOver the years, we have watched Brookstone Capital become an industry leader in designing risk-management portfolios. Their advisors are embracing annuities as a part of the solution, so we are excited to partner with them to offer a fee-based fixed-indexed annuity to their clientele.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Great American Life Insurance Company is a member of Great American Insurance Group and is rated \u201cA+\u201d by Standard & Poor\u2019s and \u201cA\u201d (Excellent) by A.M. Best for financial strength and operating performance. <\/span><\/p>\n
