Index Annuity

This appendix to the Buyer's Guide for Fixed Deferred Annuities will focus on fixed indexed annuities.  Like other types of fixed deferred annuities, fixed indexed annuities provide for annuity income payments, death benefits and tax deferred accumulation.  You should read the Buyer's Guide for general information about those features and about provisions such as withdrawal and surrender charges.

WHAT ARE FIXED-INDEXED ANNUITIES?  Quick video explanation click here

An indexed annuity is a fixed annuity, either immediate or deferred, that earns interest or provides benefits that are linked to an external index reference or an equity index.  The value of the market index might be tied to a stock or other equity index. The value of any index varies from day to day and is not predictable.

When you buy an equity-indexed annuity you own an insurance contract.  You are not buying shares of any stock or index.
