Index annuities with index options may be referred to as equity index annuities. The index options are not securities; your client is not investing in stocks or in the indexes themselves. Therefore, credited interest does not include dividends paid by companies included in the relevant index. The credited interest rate is linked, in part, to gains in any combination of indexes. Keep in mind, your client is not actually participating in the market or investing in any stock or bond.
Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuing company.
Policies, index strategies and riders may vary and may not be available in all states.
Loans and withdrawals will reduce the policy’s death benefit and available cash value. Excessive loans or withdrawals may cause the policy to lapse. Unpaid loans are treated as a distribution for tax purposes and may result in taxable income.
Variable products are underwritten by Ameritas Investment Company, LLC. Policies, index strategies and riders may vary and may not be available in all states. Optional riders may have limitations, restrictions, and additional charges.
For variable insurance products, before investing, carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and other important information about the policy issuer and underlying investment options. This information can be found in the policy and investment options prospectuses. Prospectuses are available online at ameritas.com or by calling 800-745-1112. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
