Headline figures are comparable: MYGA effective annual rates over the full term, fee-free FIA base-tier caps, and a GLWB withdrawal rate only when an exact product source publishes the rider.

All figures use a $100,000, age-60, Texas comparison case. Caps, participation rates, withdrawal rates, and bonuses are different mechanics and are never ranked against each other. Bonuses are not yield.

- 1925Chartered in Charleston as a regional life insurer; later built a preneed franchise.
- 2015Acquired by Advantage Capital and expanded nationally in annuities.
- Jan 23, 2026AM Best downgraded the issuer to B (Fair), under review with negative implications.
- Mar 13, 2026A-CAP and Oaktree announced a proposed control transaction, subject to restructuring and regulatory approval.
The rate menu is competitive and the shelf leans on bonuses, proprietary indexes, and fee-bearing rate riders. None of that offsets issuer credit risk. Treat the B rating, pending ownership change, and state guaranty limit as first-order product facts.
Product names are not proof of mechanics. Income products are counted only when an exact filing or exact FIA-income record publishes the GLWB and its benefit profile; an income-sounding name alone never qualifies.
