Interest Crediting Indexing strategies will be benchmarked against the S&P 500® Index. Crediting rate for a particular strategy can never fall below 0% Accumulation Value may be reallocated on an annual basis, 30 days prior to the Policy Anniversary date.
Interest Crediting - Caps A cap is a maximum interest rate that is used when calculating the Index Account’s interest rate. The Point-to-Point, Monthly Average, and Daily Average strategies use an annual cap. The Monthly Sum strategy uses a monthly cap. Caps are guaranteed for each Policy Year and can be adjusted annually, but will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Cap.
Interest Crediting - Caps Caps are guaranteed for each Policy Year and can be adjusted annually, but will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Cap. Effective 05/01/14
Interest Crediting Strategies Annual Point-to-Point Monthly Averaging Daily Averaging Monthly Sum
Annual Point-to-Point Each Policy Anniversary, the S&P index value is compared to the S&P index value of the previous Policy Anniversary. The resulting return, up to the applicable cap, will be credited to the Accumulation Value.
Annual Point-to-Point - example Interest Calculation: Interest Rate = 1.68%
Monthly Averaging Each Policy Anniversary, the S&P index value for the 12 monthly Index Dates will be averaged and compared to the S&P index value of the previous Policy Anniversary. The resulting return, up to the Applicable cap, will be credited to the Accumulation Value.
Monthly Averaging - example Interest Calculation: Interest Rate = 1.43%
Daily Averaging Each Policy Anniversary, the S&P index values for each trading day of the Policy Year will be averaged and compared to the S&P index value at the beginning of the period. The resulting return, up to the applicable cap, will be credited to the Accumulation Value.
Daily Averaging - example Interest Calculation: Interest Rate = 3.25%
Monthly Sum Each Policy Anniversary, the S&P performance will be determined for each month in the Policy Year. The sum of monthly changes in the S&P 500® will determine the overall crediting rate for the year. Each month, the S&P return will be subject to the applicable cap.
Monthly Sum - example 1.40% Cap Interest Rate = 3.92%
