Advanced Choice Annuity
The Advanced Choice Annuity is a great financial tool for anyone nearing or in retirement. It offers higher interest rates than many guaranteed-rate options, providing a safe and reliable way to grow your nest egg. Right from day one, you'll know what the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate is, giving you certainty and peace of mind.
Unique features like tax-deferred growth make this annuity even more attractive. You don't pay taxes until you withdraw your money, typically when you're likely to be in a lower tax bracket. Also, there's no annual contribution limit, meaning you can contribute as much as you want for that secure, comfortable retirement. It's a great supplement to other retirement plans you may have, adding a layer of stability to your financial future.

Death Benefit
100% of Account Value, less any applicable premium tax
Market Value Adjustment
To help us manage changing market conditions and interest rate environments more effectively, Security Benefit applies a Market Value Adjustment (MVA) to withdrawals that exceed the free withdrawal amount during the surrender charge period.
The MVA also will apply if you annuitize during the surrender charge period and may apply under certain circumstances involving death and joint ownership. For a full withdrawal, the MVA Factor applies to the Account Value as of the date of the full withdrawal. For a partial withdrawal, the MVA Factor applies to the decrease in the Account Value to satisfy the partial withdrawal in excess of the free withdrawal.
Note: TSP funds would be accepted as a rollover.
