Sales Week: Guaranteed lifetime income to help your clients achieve their retirement dreams

COMPETITIVE INCOME BENEFIT RIDERS = INCOME YOUR CLIENTS CAN'T OUTLIVE

IBRs provide lifetime income so your clients can enjoy the retirement they've envisioned

Have clients with concerns they’ll “run out” of retirement income? With the optional Income Benefit Riders (IBRs) available on several EquiTrust fixed index annuities (FIAs), your clients can cross this worry off the list.

IBR advantages

Each FIA features a unique IBR that pays out a lifetime stream of income without annuitization¹, even if the contract’s Accumulation Value (AV) is depleted.

Plus, all our IBRs feature a range of valuable advantages for your clients.

The optional IBR is available on these EquiTrust products:

MarketPower Bonus Index^®
MarketTen Bonus Index^®
MarketValue Index^®
MarketSeven Index^®

EquiTrust Advantage

How it works

Spousal continuation

With single life payout, income will be recalculated based on spouse age and continues for their life

Enhanced Income Withdrawals (chronic illness doubler)

Income withdrawal amounts doubled for up to five years in the event of a chronic illness (up to 50% for joint owners), and stay doubled even if the Accumulation Value reaches $0
Included at no additional cost
No confinement required — inability to perform 2 of 6 activities of daily living (ADLs) or permanent cognitive impairment
Approved in all states

Inherited and Stretch IRAs

Available for Inherited/Stretch IRAs²

IBR annual fee based on AV

Not the faster growing Benefit Base which results in a lower fee amount for your client

Flexibility and control

Client may start and stop income payments when needed

Plus! Our IBRs offer competitive rollup designs. The Benefit Base is equal to all premiums and premium bonuses (if applicable), less withdrawals, compounded at a defined rate, for either 7 or 10 years. The faster the Benefit Base accumulates, the greater the income.
