Variable Annuities
Variable annuities provide the potential to grow your assets and defer paying taxes on the earnings until you withdraw them as income.1 A diverse menu of professionally managed investment choices allows you to invest your contract value in a way that reflects your retirement goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance. Variable annuities are insurance products, so they provide many important features such as a variable annuity death benefit, lifetime income, and optional living benefits. Keep in mind that purchasing a variable annuity involves risk. The value of your contract can go up or down, depending on the performance of the underlying investments.
