Plan ahead for a retirement that can go the distance

Plan your retirement with confidence with this powerful combination of growth and flexibility.  

3 ways Performance Elite can give you a running start

1. Growth potential

Performance Elite provides powerful growth potential linked to gains in a market index with rates that are consistently among the 
highest in the market.
 

  • If you’re looking for your money to grow at a faster pace, consider a strategy charge option for even higher rates and growth potential.
  • Select from a wide range of competitive and diverse index options plus a fixed option.

2. Simplified diversification

Choose a Strategy PresetSM option and automatically diversify across multiple index strategies. This option automatically rebalances each year to simplify annual renewal decisions and adjust for optimal performance potential.

3. Maintain flexibility

For extra financial flexibility consider Performance Elite Plus, which includes a Liquidity Rider for a charge.

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.
