Market Value Adjustment (MVA)
Where applicable, MVA is applied on any withdrawals / full surrender in excess of the penalty free or RMD amount during the surrender period. In general, if interest rates (as measured by the index) have increased or have decreased by less than 0.25% (0% in states with no offset), an additional amount is deducted from the withdrawal. Conversely, if rates have fallen by 0.25% or more, an amount will be added to the withdrawal. See the contract for the MVA calculation.
Roth Conversion
American Life Traditional IRA Annuity policyholders now have the option to request full conversion of their policy values to a Roth IRA or just a portion. A partial conversion can be elected as a one time event or as an annual systematic conversion of a requested amount.
If the request is for a Full Roth Conversion, a Free Withdrawal Amount will not be available on the new Converted Roth IRA policy until the following policy anniversary.
No MVA or surrender charge will be assessed on the conversion amount.
Death Benefit
Remaining Account Value No MVA or Surrender Charge.
On transfers, take RMD at the current carrier to avoid chargeback and surrender charges in Year 1. 0.60% ending balance payable at the guarantee period if no withdrawals other than Required Minimum Distributions.
