Mountain Life Alpine Horizon 5
Description
The Alpine Horizon 5 is a single premium, fixed annuity with a five-year rate lock. After five years, owners have a 30-day window to withdraw, transfer, or reinvest their account balance. If no action is taken, a new five-year term begins with a new surrender schedule.
After the first year, owners can withdraw 5% of the contract value each year penalty-free. Optional 10% free withdrawal riders are available and will reduce the annual interest rate by .25bps. This policy includes a Market Value Adjustment and accepts both qualified and non-qualified accounts.
There are no surrender penalties upon the death of the owner. Currently, this annuity policy is only available in a few states.
