# Retirement Strategies Built Around You

Retirement isn't one-size-fits-all. Income needs, goals, concerns and priorities vary from person to person. Understanding the different pieces of retirement planning—and how they may work together—can provide a clearer picture of the options available.

### Retirement Income

Retirement income may come from Social Security, pensions, retirement accounts, personal savings, annuities and other sources. Each can play a different role in providing income throughout retirement.

### Annuities

Fixed and fixed indexed annuities can provide features such as principal protection, tax-deferred accumulation and options for retirement income, subject to the terms of the contract.

### Life Insurance

Life insurance can provide a death benefit to beneficiaries and may play a role in protection, estate and legacy planning depending on individual circumstances.

### Retirement Protection

Retirement planning may include considerations such as market risk, healthcare and long-term care expenses, longevity, inflation and unexpected costs.

## Access to Established Insurance Carriers

CDA maintains relationships with established insurance carriers offering a range of annuity and life insurance products. Products can differ considerably in their features, guarantees, costs, liquidity provisions and intended uses.

Understanding those differences is an important part of evaluating how an insurance product may—or may not—fit within an individual's broader retirement strategy.
