How crediting works: the cap limits positive index returns; a down year credits 0%, never a loss. A cap strategy tracks the index within its terms. What is a cap vs participation? →

Assumptions: illustrative — applies Power Index 5 Plus's published cap rate (9.6% on S&P 500 Index) to a standard benchmark hypothetical index path (~5.4%/yr average, including down years) with a 0% floor over 20 years.

S&P 500 annual cap rate

9.6% cap on S&P 500

A five-year-surrender fixed indexed annuity from an A-rated Corebridge carrier, built for index-linked accumulation across cap, participation, multi-year cap, and fixed-trigger strategies on a mix of recognizable benchmark and proprietary volatility-controlled indexes, with no income rider and no premium bonus.

1-year term5-year surrender$100,000+AdvisorWorld + CANNEX data

Best fit

Buyers who want index-linked accumulation on a shorter five-year surrender commitment, value the ability to mix crediting designs (cap, participation, multi-year cap, trigger) on the same S&P 500 exposure, can meet the contract's higher minimum-premium threshold, and don't need a guaranteed lifetime-income rider built into the contract.

Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

Carrier financial-strength is rated by three independent agencies (A.M. Best, S&P, and Moody's), so the strength view is not a single-source read.
Surrender term runs five years rather than the seven- or ten-year terms common on retail FIAs — the shortest commitment window in the Corebridge FIA lineup, with the full surrender ladder visible on this page.
Three crediting designs are offered on the S&P 500 alone — annual point-to-point cap, participation rate, and a fixed-rate trigger — so a buyer who wants S&P exposure can pick the mechanic that best fits their view of the index, rather than being locked into a single style. A fourth multi-year S&P 500 cap is also offered for buyers willing to lock crediting over the full term.
Index menu spans recognizable benchmark indexes (S&P 500, Russell 2000, MSCI EAFE) alongside proprietary volatility-controlled options (Franklin Quality Dividend Total Return 5%, ML Strategic Balanced, PIMCO Global Optima), so the buyer can choose between like-for-like cap comparison and higher-participation alternatives.

What to confirm

This contract is not a guaranteed-lifetime-withdrawal product. There is no GLWB income rider attached — the live feed shows an empty income-rider list — and the only contract-level enhancements are surrender-charge waivers (nursing home, terminal illness, RMD, activities of daily living). Do not compare its payout side-by-side with a rider-led income FIA.
The published minimum-premium threshold on this contract is at the high end of the FIA market and excludes smaller buyers; check the live key-facts panel for the current minimum and confirm with the carrier before assuming a smaller initial premium will be accepted.
There is no premium bonus and no death-benefit roll-up on this contract — the death benefit is the standard contract value, with no guaranteed legacy bump. The 'Plus' in the product name is the carrier's marketing for the multi-strategy chassis, not a bonus designation.
Several of the listed indexes (Franklin Quality Dividend Total Return 5%, ML Strategic Balanced, PIMCO Global Optima) are proprietary volatility-controlled benchmarks. Participation rates on these strategies can look high in absolute terms but are not directly comparable to an uncontrolled S&P 500 cap — evaluate each strategy on its own merits. The guaranteed-minimum cap floor on this contract is also very low, so caps and participation rates can reset down toward that floor over the five-year surrender term, and the buyer carries that renewal risk for the full term. New York buyers should note that this contract is not available in NY; Corebridge offers a separate NY-only Power Index 5 sibling filing for New York residents.

Not ideal for

Buyers who need a contractually guaranteed GLWB-rider withdrawal rate, want a premium bonus, expect a death-benefit roll-up beyond the standard contract value, or have an initial premium below the contract's minimum-premium threshold — none of those are what this contract is built to deliver. Also not available to New York residents on this contract; NY buyers should look at the sibling Power Index 5 NY filing instead.
