How to Revolutionize Your Practice With the Secondary Market for Annuities


BRYN MAWR, Pa., Sept. 22, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- With annuities becoming a popular personal finance tool for baby boomers facing retirement in the next couple of years, insurance companies and agents are looking for the options available to investors who are looking to either purchase an annuity or sell a policy. As part of an ongoing educational process on the secondary market for annuities, J.G. Wentworth, a specialty finance company and leader in the secondary market for annuities, will be hosting a pre-conference workshop on "How to Revolutionize Your Practice with the Secondary Market for Annuities" on September 26 at the Annual Life Insurance Sales Mastery Forum.
