Income Rider Changes You Will Appreciate
Legacy’s exclusive IncomeMark Select® and FlexMark Select® fixed index annuities from Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. offer remarkable income strategies for your clients. The following changes will take effect January 18, 2021.
IncomeMark Select—We have restructured fixed account rates, index cap and participation rates, and GLWB distribution factors to give your clients much greater performance potential. You’ll see fixed account rates and index cap and participation rates increased, and GLWB distribution factors reduced; however, due to the product’s unique design, these changes will result in better accumulation potential and higher projected income payments. We dare you to compare!
Hypothetical Example*—$100K premium, 60-year-old male with a 10-year deferral, level payout option = $13,090 annual payout.
Starting January 16, run an illustration for yourself!
FlexMark Select—In response to persistent lower interest rates, we have lowered GLWB distribution factors and increased the annual rider charge by 20 bps.** But the good news is our payouts for common income scenarios still put us ahead of many key competitors—call us for details, 800-395-1053, Ext. 4002!
Hypothetical Example—$100K premium, 60-year-old male with a 10-year deferral, level payout option = $10,524 annual payout.
