Athene Driven to do more.

Let's Make Retirement Remarkable

You work hard to help your clients’ hard-earned savings develop into retirement income. Athene works equally hard to offer annuities that can help their retirement dreams blossom.

Retirement income planning with Athene

Clients want guaranteed income solutions. Among workers with a workplace plan, 83% are interested in purchasing an annuity with their retirement savings.*

Much of your practice may be focused on helping people generate wealth for retirement. How can you help once they reach a decumulation phase? Athene provides support materials to help start the conversation, build a retirement budget and consider different income strategies. 

Carefully comparing retirement income strategies helps you develop a more cost-effective plan for clients, potentially retaining more assets for investing outside of annuities.

Indexed annuities are not stock market investments and do not directly participate in any stock or equity investments. Market indices may not include dividends paid on the underlying stocks, and therefore may not reflect the total return of the underlying stocks; neither an index nor any market-indexed annuity is comparable to a direct investment in the equity markets.

Although fixed indexed annuities offer principal protection from market downturns, the deduction of applicable charges could exceed any interest credited, resulting in the loss of principal.

Simple Interest is credited until the earlier of; the Maximum Fixed Accumulation Years is reached, the client begins Lifetime Income Withdrawals, or the Premium less withdrawals equal zero. The Income Base Guaranteed Simple Interest Rate varies by premium band and state variations may apply.

Death Benefit provisions vary by contract. Please review the Contract's Certificate of Disclosure for details.
