Fixed index annuity review and rates

Power 5 Protector

Power 5 Protector is part of The Power Series of Index Annuities — fixed index annuities (FIAs) that are issued by American General Life Insurance Company (AGL). They are insurance contracts, not direct investments in the stock market or any particular index. In exchange for your money (premium), the FIA provides you with the opportunity to earn interest based on specific indices or a fixed rate. When you need income, AGL promises to make regular income payments through annuitization (a process that permanently converts your contract to retirement income for no cost).
