What is the Aspida Advisory MYGA?
The Aspida Advisory MYGA is a single premium deferred fixed multi-year guaranteed annuity offering multiple interest rate guarantee periods for a secure, low-risk way to grow tax-deferred money for retirement.††
What this product offers
Protection from loss
The Aspida Advisory MYGA protects your initial payment, as well as the interest earned, from fluctuations in the market. Your growth is guaranteed.††
Dependable growth
Your premium earns a guaranteed interest rate for the term you choose and continues to accumulate interest at the same compounded rate for the length of your contract. After the initial guarantee period ends, your interest rate will change, but will never be lower than the minimum guaranteed interest rate stated in the contract.††
Growth is tax deferred
Your earnings grow 100% tax-deferred,«« which means you don’t pay taxes on the interest as it’s earned, but only when you withdraw it at a future date (usually retirement).‡‡ This feature allows your contract value to grow faster when compared to taxable returns.††
