Joe Hendrickson & Brian Lenz

from 401(k) Specialist Podcast Hosted by Brian Anderson / Joe Hendrickson / Brian Lenz

Lifetime Income Solutions in 401(k)s Allianz Life’s Joe Hendrickson and AmericanTCS’ Brian Lenz Discuss Market Momentum In-plan guaranteed lifetime income solutions, such as annuities, have received plenty of attention in the wake of the SECURE Act of 2019 and 2022’s SECURE 2.0 legislation, which made it significantly easier to add these types of solutions into 401(k) plans. Here to talk about how these solutions are being adapted for defined contribution plans – and how they are being presented in the real world to 401(k) participants – we have Joe Hendrickson, Vice President of Strategy & Relationship Management at Minneapolis-based Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz) and Brian Lenz, Chief Sales Officer at AmericanTCS, an early adopter bringing lifetime income options to plans sponsors and participants. The discussion includes how the market is changing, how the solutions are being implemented at the plan-level, the challenges being faced in bringing these solutions to participants, and how to help them understand the products and the 5-year outlook for lifetime income solution adoption in the employer-sponsored retirement plan market.
