Flexible Premium Indexed Annuities

A Flexible Premium Indexed Annuity offered by Caldwell Wealth Management is a retirement product designed to provide individuals with a reliable and customizable way to grow their savings while offering potential for market-linked growth. 

Here's what you need to know about this type of annuity:

1. Flexible Premiums: With a flexible premium feature, you have the freedom to contribute additional funds to your annuity beyond the initial premium. This allows you to adapt your savings strategy based on your changing financial situation and goals.

2. Indexed Growth Potential: The annuity's growth is linked to the performance of a selected market index, such as the S&P 500. Rather than investing directly in stocks, the annuity participates in the market's upside potential, offering the opportunity for higher returns.

3. Principal Protection: One key benefit of this annuity is that it provides downside protection for your principal. Even if the market experiences losses, your initial premium is safeguarded, ensuring that you don't lose your principal investment.

4. Tax-Deferred Growth: Similar to other annuities, a Flexible Premium Indexed Annuity allows your investment to grow on a tax-deferred basis. This means you won't owe taxes on your earnings until you start making withdrawals, potentially allowing for greater accumulation of funds over time.

5. Income Options: At retirement, you can choose to receive a guaranteed income stream for life, converting your accumulated savings into a steady income source. This can provide peace of mind, knowing that you have a reliable income stream to support your retirement lifestyle.
