Qualified Longevity Annuity Contracts (QLACs) are one of the most underutilized yet powerful tools available for retirement income planning. With recent regulatory changes expanding their appeal, financial advisors have a unique opportunity to help clients reduce required minimum distributions (RMDs), extend tax deferral, and create guaranteed lifetime income in retirement.

In this session, actuarial expert Scott Witt will break down the complexities of QLACs into practical, advisor-focused insights. You’ll learn:

  • How QLACs work – structure, purchase rules, contribution limits, and payout mechanics.
  • Recent legislative updates – including Secure 2.0 changes that increase their utility.
  • Planning strategies – when to consider QLACs for clients with longevity risk, high RMD exposure, or tax-sensitive portfolios.
  • Case studies – real-world scenarios showing how QLACs can complement retirement income planning.
  • Pitfalls to avoid – key product features, client suitability concerns
