Interest rate and interest rate guarantee periods
The interest rate credited to your annuity is guaranteed for 5, 7, and 10 years from the date of issue. Interest rates for new deposits are subject to change so ask your agent to confirm the current interest rates for the Reliance Guarantee annuity. Reliance Guarantee annuity contracts are issued each business day and begin earning interest on the Date of Issue which is the date the premium is received by Reliance Standard. If more than one premium payment is involved and in situations where multiple transfers and/or exchanges and cash are combined into one contract, the Date of Issue will be the date that the funds from the last source are received.
Penalty-free access
You can withdraw up to 10% of the premium paid in the first contract year, and after the first year, up to 10% of the annuity value each year with no early withdrawal charges. Withdrawals may be taken either as a lump sum or spread/ scheduled throughout the contract year. The minimum withdrawal amounts are: Unscheduled Check - $500, Scheduled Check - $250, and Scheduled EFT - $100.
Market Value Adjustment
Market value adjustment (MVA) A market value adjustment occurs when you make early withdrawals from your annuity exceeding the penalty-free amount or request a full surrender of your annuity within the first 5 years of your contract (the MVA period). A market value adjustment increases or decreases your annuity value based on the difference between current base interest rates for the same interest guarantee period and the current base interest rate in effect when your annuity contract was issued. If current interest rates for the same guarantee period are more than 0.5% lower than the base interest rate of your contract, your annuity value will receive a positive adjustment. If current base interest rates are less than 0.50% lower or are higher than the current base interest rate, your annuity value will receive a negative adjustment. However, your annuity value will never be less than the premium you paid, less any withdrawals, accumulated at the minimum guaranteed interest rate, less surrender charges.
Death Benefit
Your annuity contract’s death benefit is payable to your beneficiary upon your death. If you are also the annuitant, then your policy’s death benefit will be equal to the annuity’s value. If the annuitant is someone other than you, the policy’s death benefit is equal to the annuity value less any applicable surrender charges.
