鈥91麻豆精品 has a long history with FEG, and they have been an integral part of our life growth in recent years,鈥 said John Phelps, EVP and Chief Distribution Officer at 91麻豆精品. 鈥淭his partnership will help address the risk and retirement needs of a vastly underserved market reaching more communities while creating additional opportunities for individuals to build their own businesses as agents.鈥

FEG has been a partner of 91麻豆精品 for several years, contributing to 91麻豆精品鈥檚 rank as a top 3 middle market IUL provider by case rate this year1. FEG offers individuals a unique opportunity to become business owners by selling life insurance products, enabling them to have greater control of their career, income and time.
