Assumptions: illustrative — applies Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year)'s published trigger rate (9.6% on S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index (USD) ER) to a calibrated proprietary/volatility-controlled hypothetical index path (~1.9%/yr average, including down years) with a 0% floor over 20 years.

A choose-your-term (5-, 7-, 10-, or 20-year) fixed indexed annuity from an A-rated carrier, built entirely on performance-trigger crediting against the carrier's proprietary S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index, with a fixed-account bucket and no lifetime-income rider in the design.

Best fit

Accumulation-focused buyers who want to pick their own surrender commitment length, prefer trigger crediting (a fixed credit on any flat-to-positive index year) over cap-led upside, and are comfortable with a single proprietary index option rather than a diversified menu of recognizable benchmarks.

Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • The buyer picks a surrender term at issue — the live feed exposes 5-, 7-, 10-, and 20-year filings of the same contract, so the surrender commitment is a chosen lever rather than a single fixed length. The product name 'Rate Certainty' reflects that the chosen term locks the surrender ladder for the full period.
  • Indexed crediting is delivered entirely through performance-trigger strategies (Performance Trigger, Enhanced Performance Trigger, Protected Performance Trigger). A trigger pays the full declared rate any year the index is flat or positive — there is no cap to compress upside and no participation haircut on positive years.
  • Every strategy on this contract is filed at one-year crediting, so the buyer is not committing to a multi-year point-to-point window between credit events — crediting decisions reset annually across the entire menu.
  • Liquidity terms are visible on this page: an annual free-withdrawal allowance, the full year-by-year surrender ladder, and four surrender-charge waivers (disability, nursing home, RMD, terminal illness) — none of these are gated behind a sales brochure.

What to confirm

  • This is NOT a guaranteed-lifetime-withdrawal product — the live feed shows zero income riders attached. Do not compare this contract's headline to a rider-led income FIA on lifetime payout.
  • Every indexed strategy is linked to the same single proprietary index — the carrier's S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index (USD) ER. There is no annual point-to-point cap on the plain S&P 500 here, no Nasdaq-100 option, no Russell 2000 option — buyers expecting a diversified menu of recognizable benchmarks across multiple indexes will not find one in this contract.
  • The 'S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA' is a proprietary volatility-controlled variant of the S&P 500, not the plain S&P 500 price index — its long-run shows behavior is not the same as the underlying benchmark, and historical S&P 500 charts are not a sound proxy for the index this product credits against.
  • Trigger strategies cap upside implicitly — any year the index is positive, the buyer earns the declared trigger rate regardless of how strong the index move was. In a year the index rallies sharply, a trigger credit is lower than what a participation-rate strategy on the same index would have earned. Trigger crediting trades upside-tail capture for the certainty of a fixed credit on flat-to-positive years.
  • Surrender-period choice changes the rate menu — the 5-, 7-, 10-, and 20-year filings publish their own trigger rates and fixed-account rates, so a rate quoted on one filing does not apply to another. Confirm the term the buyer is purchasing before quoting any number from this page.

Not ideal for

Buyers who want a contractually guaranteed lifetime withdrawal rate from a GLWB rider, an annual point-to-point cap on the plain S&P 500 or Nasdaq-100 for like-for-like benchmark comparison, or a menu of multiple indexes — this contract delivers none of those by design.

Common questions about Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year)

● Can I lose money in Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year)?

A negative index return by itself does not reduce the contract's account value: Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year) credits 0% — the floor — for that indexed period. The account value can still decrease from withdrawals, surrender charges, other contract-specific deductions. In years with no credited interest, those deductions can reduce the account value. Up to 10% of your value can be withdrawn each year without a charge; withdrawals above the penalty-free amount during the surrender period can incur a surrender charge.

● When can I access my money without a surrender charge?

Up to 10% of your account value each year is penalty-free. The scheduled surrender charges run 5 years; after that the surrender-charge schedule ends. Bonus vesting, market value adjustments when applicable, and other contract rules can still affect the amount available. The Liquidity tab of the analyzer shows the year-by-year surrender charge.

● How do Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year)'s crediting strategies compare?

Use "Compare against" in the analyzer to overlay another available Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year) strategy on the same premium, age, years, and hypothetical index path. The control labels the strategy type, rate, index, and context so caps, participation rates, triggers, spreads, and fixed-account choices are not treated as interchangeable.

Contract notes from product data

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Rate Certainty Annuity (5-year) currently shows 4 indexed or fixed crediting options, including Fixed Account, with 3 volatility-controlled index options grouped separately. These choices matter because caps, participation rates, fixed accounts, spreads, and renewal terms are different mechanics and should not be ranked as one simple rate list.

  • Fixed Account: 4% fixed account rate

Liquidity terms

Why access rules deserve as much attention as rates

A fixed indexed annuity can preserve more control than an income-only contract, but access is still governed by the surrender schedule, free-withdrawal terms, and waiver language. Those details are where many product comparisons become more meaningful than a simple rate list.

  • 10%/yr free withdrawal
  • 5 surrender years
  • Disability waiver
  • Nursing home waiver
  • RMD waiver
