YOUR FINANCIAL PROFESSIONAL FOR LIFE

My name is Arun Lai. Welcome to my Web site. Please allow me to introduce myself . . .



As a financial professional of AXA Advisors LLC, and an active member of the community, I am dedicated to helping individuals and businesses build their financial futures.



I provide financial products and services to individuals and small businesses, including asset allocation strategies, retirement funding, and estate planning strategies, annuity products, life insurance products, and mutual funds. Securities products and services are offered through AXA Advisors, LLC.



To stay on top of my field and develop my professional skills, I regularly attend industry training and certification programs. I have passed the exams for and hold the FINRA Series 7 and Series 66 registrations. Additionally, I am a Retirement Planning Specialist with AXA Advisors, based upon receipt of a Certificate in Retirement Planning from the Wharton School, University of Pennylvania.  I have also earned my Ohio Life, Health, and Variable Products Insurance licenses.



I am a graduate of The Doon School in India, and my academic achievements include a Bachelor of Arts degree from Delhi University.



My education, experience and professional association have fostered my practical approach to offering financial products and planning services to my clients. Rather than just recommending a hodgepodge of unrelated products, first I’ll consider your specific financial goals. Then, if it is suitable, as a registered representative of AXA Advisors, LLC and an insurance agent of AXA Network LLC, I’ll recommend the appropriate products and services to help you execute your strategy.



With over 30 years of business experience in Cincinnati, I have developed and maintained strong and honest relationships with clients, proven by a low attrition rate and high retention of repeat clients. Additionally, I have built and nurtured solid relationships with hundreds of high-level clients throughout the Greater Cincinnati business community.



Maintaining a strong sense of community and a solid professional foundation are very important to me. I am the Past President of the Covington Rotary Club, Charter President of the Exchange Club of N.E. Cincinnati, and the Past Chair of the Central Clinic Board of Directors. Founded in 1923 by United Way, this non-profit agency helps care for the underprivileged and indigent population of Cincinnati. Additionally, I currently serve as a member of the Ronald McDonald House Planned Giving Council, as a Board Member and Treasurer of the N.E. Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce, and as a Board Member and Vice Chairman of the Masonic Learning Center for Children Inc. These learning centers have been created specifically for the purpose of providing free specialized training and tutoring to children who suffer from Dyslexia, and provides them with the skills and confidence they need to approach learning with eagerness and without fear.



My wife Beverly, son Chethan and I reside in Loveland, Ohio.



Thanks for visiting.

HOT TOPIC: American Manufacturing: Rebound or Renaissance?

During the last decade, U.S. manufacturing lost millions of jobs to foreign competition. The sector appears to be coming back strong, adding almost half a million jobs since 2010 as productivity rises. This article examines the conditions that originally caused the exodus of U.S. industrial production and those that may bode well for its future.

Rising Popularity of Roth IRA as Retirement Vehicle

Investment in the Roth IRA has been growing dramatically. Fueling the growth of this popular investment vehicle are tax-free distributions in retirement and no mandatory withdrawals due to age. Compare the trade-offs of Roth IRAs with traditional IRAs, including eligibility limitations, annual contribution limits, and withdrawal considerations.

Evaluating Life Insurance Needs

It's a good idea for people to evaluate their life insurance coverage to help ensure it keeps pace with their needs. Not only do major life events affect the amount of coverage that may be needed, but inflation can reduce the purchasing power of the death benefit and a greater benefit may be needed to cover estate taxes and other debts.

When Key Players Can't Work

If a company is a two-owner business or its success relies on a few key players, key-person life or disability insurance could possibly offset the risk that the premature disability or death of a major contributor could ruin its future prospects.
