“Transamerica brings a wealth of experience and solutions; the strategy behind our collaboration revolves around providing advisors with additional ways to increase the value they bring to their clients. We are very pleased to have them on board,” says Brian Peterson, TruChoice President and CEO.
“Transamerica understands the important role annuities have in a well-developed retirement strategy. Working with TruChoice provides us with another outlet to serve those customers and their advisors in a way that is convenient for them,” said Joe Boan, Senior Managing Director for Individual Solutions at Transamerica. “This new opportunity helps Transamerica expand our client base and facilitates more people to save, invest, protect and retire.”
