About Product
Interim Value
The Interim Value calculation uses a hypothetical portfolio approach which aligns with industry standards. The Interim Value for each Shield Option is equal to the sum of (1) the market value of the Fixed Income Asset Proxy and (2), the current market value of the Derivative Asset Proxy.
Performance Lock
Performance Lock will be available on all Shield Options within the Shield Level II 6-Year Annuity product. The Contract Owner will be able to lock the Interim Value once per Term. The Performance Lock Value can be transferred to another Shield Option on any Contract Anniversary after the Performance Lock feature is exercised. Once the Performance Lock is exercised, it is irrevocable.
