FINRA Mandates Training on Deferred Variable Annuities
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has mandated that all companies that sell Deferred Variable Annuities have a training program in place by March 2008.

/Wisconsin News Articles/ - BROOKFIELD, WI, October 05, 2007 - Quest CE's Deferred Variable Annuity Training Program offers a quick and cost-effective solution for companies that are required to meet the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Rule 2821 training requirements.

FINRA's new Variable Annuity Rule requires that financial institutions train their registered representatives on deferred variable annuities. Rule 2821 requires organizations and agents to understand the requirements of the new rule and establish a schedule for compliance training. They must also have a record-keeping system in place.

Developed by industry experts, Quest CE's Deferred Variable Annuity Training Program allows supervisors and registered representatives to complete the training module online at their convenience. Once a student successfully completes a course, they may print a certificate of completion for their records. Additionally, student progress and completions can be monitored by compliance administrators online, and all records are maintained through Quest CE's online record-keeping solution.

Quest CE's Deferred Variable Annuity Training Program was designed to help financial professionals understand the suitability issues that affect the sale or exchange of deferred variable annuities.

With Quest CE's two training modules, one for supervisors and one for producers, companies can ensure compliance with FINRA Rule 2821.
