Jackson and Halo Investing Expand Relationship to Increase RIA Access to New Fee-Based Annuity Solutions

Jackson National Life Insurance Company® (Jackson®), the main operating subsidiary of Jackson Financial Inc. 1 (NYSE: JXN), today announced it has expanded its relationship with Halo Investing (Halo), an award-winning platform for protective investments, to provide registered investment advisors (RIAs) more fee-based options when considering annuities.

Jackson began offering RIAs access to fee-based fixed index annuities (FIAs) and registered index-linked annuities (RILAs) through Halo’s outsourced insurance desk (OID), Halo Insurance Services, in October 2021. After a successful first year, the expanded relationship will enable Halo to offer a wider selection of Jackson fee-based annuity solutions, including its RIA exclusive advisory variable annuity, Jackson Retirement Investment Annuity, and its Perspective Advisory II variable annuity, to advisors through Halo’s annuity platform. These expanded offerings help foster better client relationships that can grow an RIA’s business and demonstrate Jackson’s ongoing commitment to the RIA marketplace.

“The team at Halo is excited to strengthen our relationship with Jackson,” said Jason Barsema, President, Halo. “Our common mission is to help advisors offer their clients, particularly retirees, effective investment solutions. Fee-based annuities, available through Halo Insurance Services, that span the risk spectrum can be used to construct lasting income protection. Halo looks forward to continuing its mission of impact before profit through strategic partnerships that promote access to low-cost protective investment solutions for all investors.”

Americans recognize the risk of outliving their assets. According to an Alliance for Lifetime Income survey conducted with Cannex during the second quarter of 2022, less than half of respondents think their savings and income will last through their lifetimes.2 This sobering statistic about the state of the retirement landscape highlights the need for better risk management solutions and protective investments to help ensure individuals’ retirements endure. Fortunately, RIAs today can better access ideal products for their clients.

“Jackson is committed to increasing RIA access to our advisory annuities through this expanded distribution opportunity with Halo’s Protective Investing Platform,” said Scott Romine, President, Jackson National Life Distributors LLC. “This is the latest example of how Jackson is working to reduce the complexity of achieving financial security by making annuities more accessible as part of a holistic portfolio.”
