Your clients are asking about downside protection. Have the answer.
Hypothetical results based on analysis by Wade D. Pfau, Ph.D., CFA, RICP, using BlackRock capital market assumptions (February 2023). Stock and bond returns are gross of fees. Buffered strategies protect against some downside risk; if the negative return exceeds the protection level, there is a risk of substantial loss of principal. Variable annuities are subject to market risk, fees, and charges. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
