While most annuities are wise investments that can make a positive contribution to your portfolio, RSL Funding can help you to make a wise decision before you make your investment.

Five Critical Factors to Consider Before Purchasing an Annuity:

1) Terms and Conditions - First and foremost, seek advice from an independent financial adviser and make sure you understand the contract, as well as your commitment, before signing.

2) Rates of Inflation - Your annuity may decrease as inflation increases. Keep in mind that there are inflation protection plans available and ask about one for your plan.

3) Tax Advantages - Find out if there are any advantages (tax savings or deferments) or disadvantages (penalties for early withdrawal)

4) ROI - (return on investment) - Make sure any rates that is promised to you is received by you, and make sure you understand the time frame any promised rate is applied.

5) Fees - Ask about the costs of the annual fees and be sure to find out about any "surrender fees" if you need to get money out ahead of schedule.
