November 14, 2022
We understand some of the current challenges and potential risks in today's landscape. That's why we're excited to announce enhanced withdrawal rates for the Lifetime Income Benefit available with Protective Income Creator fixed annuity to help clients with retirement goals and increase your sales.

We increased withdrawal rates; here’s what it means for clients

Protective Income Creator fixed annuity offers a simple, cost-effective design with one low annual fee to help support clients' retirement goals. Now, our newly enhanced withdrawal rates offer even higher guaranteed income.


We increased our withdrawal rates by 35-75 basis points — creating stronger guaranteed income across a range of retirement ages. For example, a client who purchased Protective Income Creator fixed annuity with a $100K payment at age 60 could see $1,000 more in protected income* with the increased withdrawal rates.
