5 Year NO CAP Equity Indexed Annuity

Last month we discussed the ING Selectra, a 10 year surrender, no cap EIA from ING USA. The main issue agents seem to have with this product is the longer surrender period and lower minimum guarantee of 1.50% on 100% of deposits. On October 17, ING USA released two new indexed annuities, the Secure 5 and Secure 7. Both product have the same four crediting methods:

Point-to-Point Cap Index Strategy -
Monthly Average Index Strategy - NO CAP
Point-to-Point Participation Index Strategy - NO CAP
Fixed Rate Strategy
Spread and cap rates vary on each product, see enclosed spreadsheet for details.
Commission is 4.00% on the Secure 5 and 5.00% on the Secure 7.

9.15% First Year with a 6.00% commission

AIG has a 6.00% bonus annuity with a 6 year guaranteed rate of 4.15%. The catch is the 9 year surrender period. After the 6th year the rate could increase but, never be less than 2%. A worse case of 3.40% over the 9 years, but could do better than 4.15% depending on renewal rates. 10% free withdrawal is available. A fair rate with a good commission, just what some agents have been asking for. Call for details and licensing information.

Commission bonus of 0.25% on cases $250,000 and up! (0-75)

Conseco Applications

Conseco is back in the Multi Year Guarantee game with their 4.25% for 5 years True Level Choice annuity. To spice up the already great features such as 10% free withdrawal and full death benefit FSD is tacking on a 0.25% BONUS on all TLC applications for the rest of 2005. We want to welcome Conseco back and get you, the agent, reacquainted with this competitive annuity carrier.
