Lincoln will also assist SEI with marketing the product to investment advisors.

Stephen Lewis, CEO of the annuities group for Lincoln said that the firm already has a strong presence in the wirehouses and regional brokerage channels -- the new offering will help his division make inroads into the advisor channel.

Carmen Romeo, president of SEI's investment advisory group, said his firm selected Lincoln over several of its competitors on the basis of its "service, technology and its strong commitment to the success of SEI's variable annuity initiative."

The variable annuity is slated to roll out in August 2000.
