Designed for
stability and growth

Receive the highest available participation rate for 5 years, guaranteed, with the High Par 5 Strategy.

Participation rates in an indexed universal life (IUL) policy matter. It’s the percentage of the index performance used to calculate the interest applied to your policy. A higher participation rate may increase growth potential when the underlying index increases. With the High Par 5 Strategy, you can count on a guaranteed participation rate for 5 years—with the opportunity for even more growth potential along the way.

Stable participation rates locked for 5 years

Each new premium allocated to this strategy will receive an annual participation rate that is locked in for five years (the rate lock period). During this period, the locked-in participation rate is guaranteed to never be less than the locked-in rate.

“Better of” rate guarantee for greater growth potential

During the rate lock period, if the corresponding 1-year indexed interest strategy participation rate is higher than the High Par 5 Strategy locked-in rate at the beginning of any 1-year segment, you are guaranteed to automatically receive the higher rate for that segment.

Available for all new premiums for the life of the policy

The High Par 5 Strategy is available for all new premiums—even premiums received 10, 20 or more years into the policy.

Additional details

  • Dollar cost averaging, a service available at no charge to systematically move a portion of new premiums from the fixed account into an indexed interest strategy, also qualifies for the High Par 5 strategy.
  • Any money allocated to a High Par 5 segment can be reallocated to a different indexed interest strategy in the policy at any 1-year segment maturity.
  • At the end of each five-year period, the cash value in the High Par 5 strategy will automatically reallocate to the corresponding 1-year indexed interest strategy unless you have other maturity allocations.
