While not an ETF, a Variable Annuity integrates investment options, including ETFs, within an insurance product framework. This financial instrument offers a dual benefit, providing a stream of income in retirement while allowing investors to participate in the market through the inclusion of ETFs in sub-accounts. Variable Annuities grant investors flexibility, allowing them to balance growth potential with the security of annuitization. By leveraging the investment capabilities of ETFs within a variable annuity, investors can tailor their portfolios to align with individual risk tolerances, financial goals, and the desire for a reliable income stream during retirement.
