FlexMark Select annuities are all about flexibility and choice. Clients can tailor their FlexMark Select annuity to fit their need for accumulation and/or retirement income strategies. They can choose a bonus or no-bonus product and upgrade from a no-cost GLWB income rider to a for-cost GLWB rider that offers a stronger “roll-up” rate, lifestyle, and level payout options, and an optional income booster. The diverse interest crediting options, with the option to receive higher participation and/or cap rates for a fee, provide additional flexibility.

FlexMark Select gives you the choice of a fee or no-fee version of each index option.

Fee Option—In exchange for paying a fee, you will receive higher caps and/or participation rates than are available on the no-fee option. This translates to the opportunity for greater earnings. Index options with a fee are an excellent choice if you are looking to maximize your growth potential. Fee options are not available in all states.
No-Fee Option—If you’re not interested in paying a fee, a traditional no-fee option, which offers competitive rates, is a solid choice.
Fee and No-Fee Combination—FlexMark Select allows you the flexibility to diversify your money among all available crediting strategies. That means you can split your premium among fee options, no-fee options, and the fixed account—allowing you to customize your accumulation path.

Please note this product is developed and marketed exclusively with Legacy Marketing Group.
