Chartline, a FIA from Knighthead Life, helps you chart a confident course to retirement. Key features:
  • Funds Protection: Premium allocations are fully protected from downside market risk.
  • Interest Growth: Interest is credited based on the performance of underlying indices, allowing for upside potential with no downside risk. 
  • Income: After the first contract anniversary, you may elect to convert the contract value into a lifetime income stream.
  • RMD Friendly: All charges are waived on withdrawals during a contract year that do not exceed IRS-required minimum distributions.
  • Tax Deferral: Interest earnings grow on a tax-deferred basis, meaning funds are not taxable until withdrawn or distributed from the annuity.
Allocation Options
Allocate your premium among a lineup of Model Portfolios, index strategies, and a fixed strategy to customize your accumulation strategy.

Model Portfolios: Model Portfolios may be elected to diversify premium among multiple strategies. Funds may be reallocated in or out of a Model Portfolio at the end of each crediting term. Funds allocated to a Model Portfolio will automatically rebalance on each contract anniversary based on the initial model allocation percentages.

Individual Strategies: In addition to Model Portfolios, you may elect to allocate premium to individual strategies. These allocations can be used with or without Model Portfolios. The total allocation between Model Portfolios and individual strategies must equal 100%.
