The Beneficial Index Annuity with Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Rider


In an uncertain and ever-changing world, protect your retirement with lifetime guarantees.1

Potential retirement dangers. Like many people looking forward to retirement, you may be concerned about market instability and other potential hazards on the journey ahead—what’s around the bend? A variety of risks—market declines; inflation; inadequate pension, Social Security, 401(k); etc.—could threaten your retirement journey.

Other potential dangers include declining interest rates; rising taxes; increasing costs for health care, prescriptions, and long-term care; and outliving your assets. These potential dangers could seriously interfere with your retirement plans by forcing you to do one or more of the following:

Protect your retirement. Help protect your retirement journey from unexpected hazards with strong, flexible safeguards. Beneficial’s Index Annuity with Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Rider give you income, access, protection, and interest, in one convenient package. You get:
  1. Guaranteed lifetime retirement income that will last as long as you do. Your lifetime-guaranteed income is like a pension—you can’t outlive it.
  2. Guaranteed access to your retirement account, which means you control your money, as you would with a 401(k) at the time of your retirement. But, unlike a 401(k), you have the guarantee that your income won’t run out even if your account value is $0. You always have guaranteed access2 to 100% of your Index Annuity cash value (penalties may apply for excess withdrawals).
  3. Guaranteed protection and interest. While your capital is in the Index Annuity, guaranteed principal and guaranteed minimum return preserve your capital in an up, down, or flat market. You also get potentially higher interest that is linked to the movement of the S&P 500® Index.
