FIA EDUCATIONAL SERIES

Product Comparison: Index-Linked Annuities

For 25 years, fixed indexed annuities (FIA) have been helping consumers enjoy downside protection and upside potential in their retirement plans. Yet these products, and indexing in particular, are still widely misunderstood and even misrepresented by some entities.

NAFA’s newest educational series seeks to break down specific features and benefits of these annuities in a way that anyone — regulator, legislator, journalist, agent or consumer — can understand. For our latest installment, we illustrate how a fixed index annuity differs from a registered index-linked annuity and examine the risk and reward offered by each product.
