About Product
With Amplify 2.0 NF, you can allocate money among a wide variety of Index-Linked Segment Options. These options have three components: a buffer, a term period and an underlying market index.
This gives you the flexibility to customize your plan based upon your specific needs.
Performance Blend (Available in the 6-year Segment Option)
Performance Blend is a weighted average return of three different indices (SPX, RTY, MXEA) where at the Segment End Date, 50% of the index change used to determine Segment Credits is based on the return of the best performing Index, 30% is based on the return of the second-best performing Index and 20% is based on the return of the lowest performing Index. The Cap Rate, Participation Rate and Buffer Rate are then applied to this weighted average return.
Milestone Lock (Available in the 6-year Segment Option)
Milestone Lock is a unique crediting method that captures gains of the S&P 500® Index as certain Milestone Thresholds are met. The threshold percentage is set at the beginning of the 6-year Segment Term Period and guaranteed not to change throughout the term. If at each annual Segment Start Date anniversary, the threshold has been met, your Buffer protection will reset based on the current index level, allowing you to take advantage of positive market performance and protect your gains from subsequent downturns.
