    Fixed Index Annuities

    Finding the right mix of growth potential and protection for your retirement assets can be a challenging balancing act. We get that. That’s why we offer fixed index annuities designed to do just that.

     

    Protection

    As opposed to taking “two steps back” when the market performs negatively, one strategy to help build confidence when faced with a bear market is to use a fixed index annuity, or FIA. While a FIA’s index options are not directly invested in the market, interest credits are based on market performance.

    Volatility

    Although past performance is no guarantee of future results, looking at the history of the market’s performance cycles may provide a fresh perspective on the benefits of diversification.

    The term financial professional is not intended to imply engagement in an advisory business in which compensation is not related to sales. Financial professionals that are insurance licensed will be paid a commission on the sale of an insurance product.
    Fixed index annuities are not a direct investment in the stock market. They are long term insurance products with guarantees backed by the issuing company. They provide the potential for interest to be credited based in part on the performance of specific indices, without the risk of loss of premium due to market downturns or fluctuation. Although fixed index annuities guarantee no loss of premium due to market downturns, deductions from your accumulation value for additional optional benefit riders or strategy fees associated with allocations to enhanced crediting methods could exceed interest credited to the accumulation value, which would result in loss of premium. They may not be appropriate for all clients. Interest credits to a fixed index annuity will not mirror the actual performance of the relevant index.
