All guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuer.
Guarantees do not relate to the performance of the variable investment options. A variable annuity is a long-term financial retirement vehicle, subject to market fluctuations. It may lose value, including the potential loss of principal, and is subject to certain fees and expenses not normally associated with other investment vehicles. Withdrawals are subject to contract provisions and will reduce the contract value and the accumulation benefit base, the amount used to calculate withdrawal or income payments and death benefit amounts. Withdrawals may be subject to income taxes and surrender charges; and, when taken before age 59 ½, may be subject to an additional 10 percent penalty tax.
Clients should consult their trusted financial professionals before taking income or other withdrawals. If the annuity contract is held in a qualified account or plan, such as an IRA, the tax deferral feature provides no additional benefits beyond that provided by the qualified account or plan.
Product and/or features may not be available in all states. Policy form number: ICC11-VA-C. Rider form number: Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit ICC21-GMAB. Form numbers may vary by product and state. Optional riders carry additional cost and may not be available in certain combinations.
