  4. Celebrating our most popular Pivotal Select funds

    In August 2022, Equitable® launched 12 new segregated funds in Pivotal Select’s Investment Class (75/75). We wanted to bring some new innovative solutions to the product, including six sustainable investment funds. To say the launch of these funds was successful would be an understatement.

    The funds are quickly becoming some of the most popular funds in Pivotal Select™, and their performance in 2023 was impressive. Equitable wants to celebrate these funds and encourage clients to consider them for their portfolios.

    As of February 29, 2024, nine out of the 12 funds received a 1st quartile ranking for their 1-year return and two more were 2nd quartile. The table below shows the new funds that ranked in the top two quartiles for their 1-year returns.

  7. Revised Witness Signature Process during COVID-19 for Individual Life and Critical Illness Insurance Revised Witness Signature Process during COVID-19 for Individual Life and Critical Insurance Business

    We are temporarily revising our policy around witness signatures during COVID-19. While the preference is to have a witness when one is available, we understand that may be difficult given our current environment.

    Please follow the options below for witness signature with the first option being most preferable, and the last option being the least preferable:

    1. Signature from a witness who is a disinterested party
    2. Signature from a witness who is a party with an interest
    3. No witness 

    If we receive a form that doesn’t have a witness signature, we will still process the form. Just a reminder this is only temporary during COVID-19.

    By offering the choice of four sales charge options, as well as the choice between three distinct guarantee classes: Investment Class (75/75), Estate Class (75/100) and Protection Class (100/100), and a diverse selection of investment funds, the Pivotal Select contract provides the flexibility to build an investment solution that meets the needs of your clients.
