Atlantic Coast Safe Harbor 20
Description
The Safe Harbor 20 is a single premium, simple interest annuity with a twenty-year rate guarantee. After twenty years, owners have a 30-day window to withdraw, transfer, or renew their full policy value. If no action is taken, a new term will begin.
With an increasing interest rate schedule, this contract is designed primarily for long-term growth. The rate below reflects the compounding equivalent rate for easier comparisons.
There are no free withdrawal riders offered. A Death Benefit Feature can be added that reduces the yearly rate by 0.25% and allows for a surrender-free annuity value upon passing. Ownership between the ages of 70-75 is permitted, but the death benefit feature must be added.
