Pacific Life Links Commission-Free Annuities to Morningstar® ByAllAccounts® Platform
New Collaboration Enables Real-Time View of Annuities Alongside Client Investment Portfolios
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (September 14, 2021)—Providing registered investment advisors (RIAs) with the best possible experience using its advisory annuities, Pacific Life today announced the availability of its commission-free products on the Morningstar® ByAllAccounts® (ByAllAccounts) platform. ByAllAccounts provides client account aggregation for holistic visibility into clients’ assets, helping financial professionals plan more comprehensively and pursue strong investment outcomes.
“RIAs like working with Pacific Life due to our solid industry reputation and advisory-centric products. Additionally, they’re looking for a seamless portfolio-management experience,” said Doug Mantelli, vice president of RIA strategy at Pacific Life. “To customize portfolios for their individual clients, financial professionals must use a wide range of investments. The Morningstar ByAllAccounts platform empowers them with a real-time view of Pacific Life’s advisory annuities alongside their clients’ other investments. The advantage of having all the information they need at their fingertips is a game changer.”
The collaboration with ByAllAccounts will allow financial professionals to easily monitor and bill on their clients’ tax-advantaged retirement-income solutions. RIAs also can manage a client’s entire portfolio of both taxable and tax-advantaged assets within a single advisor workstation. This feature makes it possible to construct a diversified and holistic retirement strategy.
Pacific Life’s dedicated RIA team, Pacific Life Advisory, is focused on creating competitive, fee-based annuities and helping financial professionals incorporate them into their practices. Simplified technology integrations are a priority, and the company continues to team up with new custodians and insurance-licensing firms to make it as easy as possible to include annuities in clients’ portfolios.
