Beneficiary Designation Updated — Account account_number

Beneficiary-Designation-Confirmation.pdf

Hi client_first_name,

Your beneficiary designations for your account_type have been updated. Please review the summary below and compare it to the attached confirmation to ensure everything reflects your wishes exactly.

BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION UPDATE

• Account Number: account_number

• Account Type: account_type

• Date Updated: update_date

• Current Designations: beneficiary_summary

WHY THIS MATTERS

Beneficiary designations override your will. This means that regardless of what your estate documents say, the assets in this account will pass directly to the individuals listed here upon your death. This is one of the most important details in your financial plan — and one of the most commonly neglected.

WHEN TO REVISIT YOUR DESIGNATIONS

We recommend reviewing your beneficiary designations whenever you experience a significant life event:

• Marriage or divorce

• Birth or adoption of a child or grandchild

• Death of a named beneficiary

• Significant change in a beneficiary's financial or personal circumstances

We'll prompt you to review these annually as part of your financial planning process — but if anything changes in the meantime, please reach out right away. A designation that's even slightly outdated can create serious complications for your estate.

Questions? I'm at me::phone anytime.

Workflow context
When to use this workflow

Use this workflow when a client's beneficiary designation has been updated and the advisor needs to confirm the current designations in writing.

What this replaces

This replaces manually writing beneficiary update confirmations, retyping account details, and checking whether the confirmation document is attached.

Why teams standardize this email

Beneficiary designations are important account details. A workflow helps advisors communicate updates clearly, remind clients to keep designations current, and review every draft before sending.

What Toggles handles

The workflow prepares the operational details your team should not have to rebuild by hand.

  • Inserts the beneficiary update confirmation email in Outlook
  • Prompts for client name, account number, account type, update date, beneficiary summary, and phone number
  • Adds an account-specific subject line
  • Can include the configured beneficiary designation confirmation attachment
  • Keeps the draft editable before sending
