The Secured Rate Annuity is a single premium deferred annuity offering strong rate guarantees and and flexible withdrawal options. Some options even provide bonus rewards for your clients’ long-term savings commitment.

This contract offers a choice of one-, three-, five- or six-year interest rate guarantee period. At the end of the guarantee period, your clients benefit from competitive renewal rates based on the current interest rate environment and current market conditions.

Principal is 100% guaranteed. This means that your client or the beneficiary will never receive less than total premium payments, less any previous withdrawals.

The contract offers a variety of ways for your clients to access funds before the end of the surrender-charge period without paying a surrender charge. Easy withdrawal methods include a 10% annual withdrawal option, payments of interest earnings, 72(t) and 72(q) SEPPs for early retirement income without penalties, IRS Required Minimum Distributions from qualified plans, and nursing home and terminal condition waivers.

The surrender-charge period ranges from three to six years, depending on the guarantee period selected. There are no annual contract fees. The maximum issue age is 90. $15,000 is the minimum initial premium necessary to establish the contract; $1,000,000 is the maximum initial premium allowed (however, higher amounts may be permitted with the prior home-office approval). Additional premiums are accepted during the first 90 contract days.
