Best fit

Buyers committed to a full ten-year deferral who want index-linked accumulation, value a curated rather than sprawling index menu, 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 two independent agencies (A.M. Best and S&P), so the strength view is not a single-source read.
  • Index menu pairs the recognizable S&P 500 with a curated set of proprietary volatility-controlled benchmarks (Barclays Aries, BlackRock U.S. Equity Bitcoin Balanced Risk, Nasdaq-100 Volatility Control, S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA) — the buyer can choose between like-for-like cap comparison and higher-participation alternatives.
  • 'Flexible Cap' design on the S&P 500 strategy is contractually defined — the cap can flex year-to-year but is held above a guaranteed minimum, which is the number a buyer who wants a worst-case planning floor should compare against.
  • Free-withdrawal allowance and the full ten-year surrender ladder are visible on this page, so the schedule of penalty-free liquidity is not gated behind a sales brochure.

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. Do not compare its payout side-by-side with a rider-led income FIA, including the sibling 'DualTrack Income' filing.
  • The ten-year surrender term sits at the long end of the FIA market. Buyers who do not need a full ten-year deferral should compare a shorter-surrender FIA — Delaware Life's own seven-year filings (Growth Pathway, Retirement Stages Select) cover the same accumulation purpose with a shorter lock-up.
  • 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 'Flexible Cap' design means the current cap can renew lower in any future year, subject only to the contract's guaranteed minimum. The current headline is not contractually locked for the surrender term; the renewal-risk floor is what's guaranteed.

Not ideal for

Buyers who need a contractually guaranteed GLWB-rider withdrawal rate, want a shorter surrender commitment, expect a premium bonus to offset the long surrender term, or want a fully locked cap rather than a flexible one that resets year-to-year.

Common questions about Momentum Growth

● Can I lose money in Momentum Growth?

A negative index return by itself does not reduce the contract's account value: Momentum Growth 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 10 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 Momentum Growth's crediting strategies compare?

Use "Compare against" in the analyzer to overlay another available Momentum Growth 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.

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Momentum Growth currently shows 12 indexed or fixed crediting options, including S&P 500 Index and Fixed Account, with 8 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: 9.5% annual cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 7.75% annual cap
  • Fixed Account: 4.65% fixed account rate
  • Fixed Account: 4.3% 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
  • 10 surrender years
  • Nursing home waiver
  • Terminal illness waiver

Verification note

Use carrier materials as term evidence, then confirm the current version

Carrier materials such as PLACEHOLDER-IMO_MG778BR_Brochure_-_Momentum_Growth_FIA.pdf help explain the contract language behind the data on this page; the latest document activity we see is Apr 8, 2026. For the current brochure, rate sheet, or specimen contract, confirm the state-specific version with the carrier or a licensed financial professional.

  • Rates and rider terms can vary by state and issue age
  • Carrier guarantees depend on claims-paying ability
  • Current contract forms should be confirmed before purchase
