Accelerated Wealth (AW) is one of the fastest-growing wealth management firms in Colorado, with 9 offices around the U.S. AW, a hybrid planning firm specializing in both insurance and investment-based planning, just celebrated its first decade in business, and has won The Colorado Springs Gazette’s “Best of Colorado Springs” for financial planner 5 years in a row. As it is one of the few advisory firms we are seeing that are combining fixed indexed annuities and index-based investment management, S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI) recently interviewed senior leadership at AW to learn more about how indexing plays a role in how they plan and manage retirement risk.
