By Paul Feldman InsuranceNewsNet

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado, May 24, 2010 — Insurance Technologies LLC, the premier provider and industry innovator in the creation of product comparison, compliance, suitability and point-of-sale software for the insurance, financial services and brokerage industries, today announced the successful implementation of the VisibleChoice™ annuity sales platform for Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments (PKS Investments).

After performing due diligence on a number of vendors to be able to provide a side-by-side comparison for Variable Annuity exchanges, PKS Investments chose Insurance Technologies’ VisibleChoice™ as it’s annuity sales solution provider. The deciding factors in their decision to select VisibleChoice™ were; its built-in compliance and suitability features, its ability to deliver quick, comprehensive Annuity product information including all carrier product details such as costs, riders, benefits, etc. Affordability was also a compelling factor in their decision.

The VisibleChoice™ sales & compliance platform enables Investment Executives to select and compare multiple annuity products at once, create compliant illustrations and recommend the annuity that is best-suited for their client’s needs. With one summary view within VisibleChoice™, Investment Executives can compare product features such as income benefits, share classes, withdrawal benefits and illustrative results.

“VisibleChoice™ is very comprehensive and user friendly. Currently, all our reps that sell Variable Annuities are required to use VisibleChoice™. The annuity reports that VisibleChoice™ provides is proving very helpful in our supervisory review of the sales and exchanges of Variable Annuities” said Katherine Flouton, COO, Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments. “Working with Insurance Technologies has been a very positive experience. They are very responsive and easy to work with.”
