Why choose an annuity? Annuities provide insurance against the risk that you’ll outlive your money after you retire. They give you the potential to grow your savings and create a guaranteed income stream to last a lifetime.
Athene Ascent Pro can help you reach your retirement goals. Guaranteed income
The built-in Ascent Income Rider allows you to create a guaranteed stream of income that can last as long as your retirement. The amount you receive can increase the longer you wait to start income payments. Growth potential Pursue additional growth with Interest Credits that are based in part on the performance of an external market index. Protection from downside market risk Your money is not directly exposed to the risks of the stock market or individual stocks. Tax deferral Annuities provide the advantage of tax-deferred interest accumulation. You don’t pay taxes on any growth until you withdraw money. 3 A death benefit Your annuity can offer your loved ones a quick source of funds to settle matters after your death. Your beneficiary is guaranteed your annuity’s full Accumulated Value or Minimum Guaranteed Contract Value, whichever is greater. 4
3 Under current tax law, the Internal Revenue Code already provides tax deferral to qualified money, so there is no additional tax benefit obtained by funding an IRA with an annuity. Consider the other benefits provided by an annuity, such as lifetime income and a Death Benefit. 4 If death occurs after annuitization, payments will be consistent with the Settlement Option selected. Taxes may apply.
