Move from direct concept checks into product comparisons, recommendations, calculations where applicable, client scenarios, exceptions and exam traps.
Use the competency weights to decide where to spend time, then practise the decisions that connect the topics.
Objectives, time horizon, liquidity, risk tolerance, retirement needs and estate considerations.
Guarantees, resets, withdrawals, fees, beneficiary considerations and the relationship between market value and contractual guarantees.
Lifetime income, guarantee periods, joint-life options, liquidity trade-offs and longevity risk.
