Introduction to Fixed Indexed Annuities
Retire on your terms, not the market’s.
Fixed Indexed Annuities hedge market shocks, guard your principal, and keep you on track to retire when you choose.
What is a Fixed Indexed Annuity?
A Fixed Indexed Annuity (FIA) is a contract between you and an insurance company.
You pay a premium, and in return, the insurer guarantees that your principal is protected from market losses and that you can earn interest linked to the performance of a market index (like the S&P 500).
Your money is not invested directly in the market. Instead, you benefit from the index's growth without risking your principal when the market drops.
Think of it as a powerful blend of growth potential, principal protection, and tax-deferred accumulation—all inside a single vehicle.
Why Fixed Indexed Annuities?
When stocks are volatile and bonds are underperforming, FIAs offer something most “safe” investments don’t: upside potential without downside risk.
Principal Protection
Never lose your initial investment to market volatility. Fixed Indexed Annuities shield your principal from market downturns, offering peace of mind that your nest egg is safe regardless of economic conditions.
Market - Linked Growth
Capture upside potential without downside risk. FIAs credit interest based on a stock market index (like the S&P 500), giving you growth opportunities when the market performs well—but without direct market exposure.
Tax - Deferred Compounding
Grow faster by delaying taxes on gains. All interest earned in an FIA grows tax - deferred, allowing your money to compound more efficiently until you begin making withdrawals.
What makes FIAs different?
The perfect balance of
growth and protection
Don't give up your growth
FIAs offer a unique blend of growth potential and principal protection. You participate in market gains while safeguarding your initial investment from market losses. It's a win-win.
Never too much
FIAs provide a stable growth path to complement your portfolio.
Save the tax for later
All interest from an FIA grows tax-deferred, so your money compounds more efficiently.
Total principal protection
Your initial investment is fully protected from market downturns. This means you can enjoy the benefits of market growth without the fear of losing your principal.
