Forethought is about to light up the fixed index annuity world.

How?

On February 1, we're introducing a new way to help your clients light up their retirement dreams as we partner exclusively with BlackRock to offer a new interest crediting strategy on Income 150+SM fixed index annuity. This two-year point-to-point interest crediting method is linked to the new BlackRock Diversa™ Volatility Control Index1.

This index is designed to seek more consistent returns than a traditional stock index by dynamically responding to market trends. It is designed to:

·         Diversify asset allocation through the use of up to 21 BlackRock iShares ETFs with equity, fixed income and alternative exposures

·         Produce steadier returns by rebalancing monthly based on a 90-day lookback

·         Focus on broad market trends

See the BlackRock brochure for more information on this new Index.
