Help grow and protect your assets with a Power Series Index Annuity.

In today’s low interest rate environment, a Power Series Index Annuity may provide more interest than some fixed income instruments. In up markets, you’ll have the opportunity to earn interest based partly on the performance of an index like the S&P 500® (excluding dividends), subject to a cap or other contract provisions. In down markets, both principal and any interest earned are locked in your account, ensuring that you’ll never lose money due to market declines.

Accumulate assets while protecting your principal in down markets

As shown by the hypothetical graph below, if a Power Series Index Annuity had been available during the “Lost Decade”—a 10-year period from 2000-2010 when most equity indices posted negative returns—it would have protected your annuity’s value from sharp market declines and provided significant growth (based on the hypothetical assumptions below). Please note that past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

_{Hypothetical example assumptions: Power Series Index Annuity with Annual Point-to-Point Index Interest Account (S&P 500® Index without dividends), $100,000 premium, 5% annual index rate cap (held constant for the period shown) and no guaranteed living benefit rider elected (no annual fees). The Annual Point-to-Point Index Interest Account earns interest based on the S&P 500® index performance from one contract anniversary (an anniversary of the date the contract is issued) to the next contract anniversary (and subsequent anniversaries), subject to the 5% index rate cap. This chart is for illustrative purposes only and is produced with the benefit of hindsight for the period, 12/31/2000– 12/31/2010. It is not intended to predict actual performance. Indices are unmanaged and are not available for direct investment. The index rate cap is hypothetical and may be reset at a higher or lower rate on each contract anniversary by the issuing insurance company. It assumes no deduction of taxes and no dividends reinvested. If dividends were included, the values shown would be different and the performance gap could be smaller. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Source: S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, 2021. See below for more information on index annuities.}

_{Important information on index annuities}

_{Index annuities are not a direct investment in the stock market. They are long-term insurance products with guarantees backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. They provide the potential for interest to be credited based in part on the performance of the specified index, without the risk of loss of premium due to market downturns or fluctuations. Index annuities may not be appropriate for all individuals. Withdrawals may be subject to federal and/or state income taxes. An additional 10% federal tax may apply if you make withdrawals or surrender your annuity before age 59½. Please consult your tax advisor regarding your specific situation.}
