FP50 2017: Which IBDs made the most in annuity sales?
Annuity revenue fell for eight of the top 10 sellers on Financial Planning‘s annual FP50 ranking of independent broker-dealers. Sales of all kinds of annuities have fallen across the industry to a 16-year low, and experts attribute much of the dropoff to the fiduciary rule.
Still, the No. 1 firm took in more than $915 million last year from annuities, more than twice as much as its nearest competitor. Together, the top 10 firms raked in nearly $2.8 billion in revenue. To get the full list, please click through our slideshow.
