Won’t you pay penalties when transferring your retirement annuity?


There may be a “penalty” if you transfer your retirement annuity (RA). These penalties represent a claw back of unrecovered broker commissions and costs. This should not, however, be a factor in your decision to transfer as your existing RA will deduct these unrecoverable commissions and costs anyway, either now when you transfer or in the future, over the remaining life of your RA.

At 10X, we do not pay broker commissions as we do not use brokers. You therefore do not incur any “penalties” if you transfer your 10X Retirement Annuity.
