Hueler’s Income Solutions® Becomes the First Automated Platform to Offer Qualified Longevity Annuity Contracts QLAC

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Investment Weekly News -- Hueler Companies has expanded Income Solutions® to include Qualified Longevity Annuity Contracts (QLAC). With the addition of Deferred Income Annuities and Longevity Insurance in late 2013, Hueler was well positioned to incorporate QLACs. The Income Solutions® automated platform is the first to offer real-time QLAC quotes in a transparent, comparable format from multiple insurance companies.

With the recent regulations passed in July 2014, individuals looking to purchase Deferred Income Annuities and Longevity Insurance with Pre-Tax (Qualified) Assets are now able to defer their income payments past the age of 70 1/2. In addition to guaranteeing a future stream of lifetime income, dollars held in a QLAC are not part of the Required Minimum Distribution calculation at the age of 70 1/2. Retirement savings that qualify for a QLAC have a maximum income start date of age 85.

"We have seen a growing demand for deferred income among individuals nearing and in retirement. We believe the new QLAC regulations give American workers and retirees a very important planning tool and much needed flexibility as they make difficult decisions about how to use their hard earned retirement savings to create sustainable income. QLACs can help ensure sufficient income later in life as Americans anticipate longer, healthier retirement years," said Kelli Hueler, CEO Hueler Companies.

Hueler's leading program partners who now offer QLAC quotes include Vanguard, Alliance Benefit Group, Beneplace and several large plan sponsors.
