Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • An optional GLWB income rider is published on this contract, so a buyer evaluating lifetime-income offers can compare its lifetime withdrawal rate side-by-side with rider-led products from other carriers using only what is on this page.
  • The rider includes a guaranteed compound roll-up on the withdrawal base during deferral and a one-time premium-based income bonus credited to the base at issue, so two distinct mechanisms grow the income amount before withdrawals begin.
  • Joint-life payouts and RMD-friendly withdrawals are both available on the income rider, which matters for married buyers and for qualified retirement money that must satisfy required minimum distributions.
  • The accumulation menu offers two cost variants of every index strategy on the same contract — a no-fee version and a 'Strategy Fee Included' version that pays a higher participation rate in exchange for an annual strategy charge — so a buyer can match cost structure to conviction on each index.
  • Athene Annuity and Life Company is A+ rated by A.M. Best, the higher of the agency's two top investment-grade tiers, so carrier strength on this page is from a recognized agency at a high mark.
  • Free-withdrawal allowance, the full surrender ladder, and the nursing-home, terminal-illness, and RMD waivers are visible directly on this page rather than gated behind a sales brochure.

What to confirm

  • Every accumulation strategy on this contract credits on a 2-year point-to-point cycle, not the annual cycle most fixed indexed annuities use. A buyer who expects to see crediting at each contract anniversary will instead see it every other year — confirm the crediting cadence with the carrier before assuming year-by-year growth.
  • There is no S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap on this contract — the S&P 500 strategy here is a 2-year participation-rate option. The participation rate on a multi-year cycle is not directly comparable to the annual S&P 500 cap rates quoted on most other FIAs on this site.
  • The income rider carries an annual fee charged on the withdrawal base, not on the account value. Effective drag on the contract can run higher than the headline fee suggests as the withdrawal base grows above the account value over time — read the rider fee in the context of the roll-up rate, not the deposit.
  • Most accumulation strategies use proprietary volatility-controlled or excess-return indexes (Shiller Barclays CAPE Allocator 6, Shiller Barclays Global, WisdomTree Siegel Strategic Value, MSCI MKT MediaStats Multi-Asset, RAFI Harvey GS, S&P 500 Distance Stabilizer TCA ER). Their participation rates can look high in absolute terms but are not directly comparable to an S&P 500 cap, and several have shorter live-track histories than the S&P 500 itself.
  • Surrender lockup runs ten years with no market-value adjustment listed in this data. The death benefit pays cash surrender value, not account value or a rolled-up income base, so heirs receive what a buyer would receive on a non-penalty surrender rather than an enhanced amount.
  • The 'Strategy Fee Included' variants charge an annual strategy fee deducted regardless of index performance. A higher participation rate on a fee-bearing variant is not directly comparable to a no-fee variant at the same headline rate — read the fee column alongside the participation number on every strategy row.

Not ideal for

Buyers who want an annual S&P 500 cap to headline against, who need annual-cycle crediting, who want a plain MYGA-style declared rate without a rider, who need an account-value-based or roll-up death benefit, or who need short-surrender liquidity — none of those are what this contract is built to deliver.

Common questions about Athene BCA 10 2.0

● Can I lose money in Athene BCA 10 2.0?

In a year the index falls, Athene BCA 10 2.0 credits 0% — the floor — so your account value does not drop from market losses. Up to 5% 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.

● Is the BALIR Flex Growth - Level Income income rider worth the 1% fee?

It depends on whether you will use the guaranteed income. If you are accumulating only, you can skip it. If you want guaranteed lifetime income later, the 4.5% roll-up and 3.75% withdrawal rate can make it worthwhile — model it in the Income tab of the analyzer above.

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

Up to 5% of your account value each year is penalty-free. The surrender period runs 10 years; after that you reach full liquidity. The Liquidity tab of the analyzer shows the year-by-year surrender charge.

● How does Athene BCA 10 2.0 compare to other FIAs?

Use "Compare against" in the analyzer to overlay Athene BCA 10 2.0 with a competing product on the same growth path and see a side-by-side spec row. The better fit depends on your goal — accumulation, income, or liquidity — and the comparison shows where each product leads.

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Athene BCA 10 2.0 currently shows 14 distinct indexed or fixed crediting choices across 21 current rate listings, including S&P 500 Index and S&P 500 Distance Stabilizer TCA Index (USD) ER, with 10 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.

  • S&P 500 Index: 48% participation
  • S&P 500 Index: 63% participation
  • S&P 500 Distance Stabilizer TCA Index (USD) ER: 100% participation

Income rider language

What to look for before treating the rider as income

BALIR Flex Growth - Level Income is the main income-rider entry returned for this product. Rider terms can affect the tradeoff between future lifetime withdrawals, contract value, beneficiary value, and cost, so the exact state version and rider election should be confirmed before comparing it to annuitization or income-only contracts.

  • 3.75% withdrawal rate
  • 1% rider fee

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.

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

Verification note
