+ Frequently Asked Questions About This Annuity

The Anchor MYGA 6 is issued by the Gulf Guaranty Life Insurance Company

Q: Does the interest compound? A: Yes.

Q: Is the interest taxed? A:Your annuity grows tax deferred. This maximizes your growth potential because you are not taxed on your earnings until you withdraw money from your annuity. If your money is not already in a pre-tax account such as an IRA or 401k, this is an advantage over a bank CD where each year your interest is taxed.

Q: Are there any fees? A: No, there are no sales charges or ongoing maintenance fees. There are charges for the optional riders listed below.

Q: Is it FDIC insured? A: No. FDIC insurance is only for bank deposits. Fixed annuities are guaranteed by the issuing insurance company.

Q: What are the early surrender charges? A: The early surrender charges only apply to withdrawals which are greater than the penalty free amount. If surrender charges apply, they start at 9% and decline to 0% after the 6th year. The schedule is 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%.

Q: Are penalty-free withdrawals available? A: Yes. You can purchase a rider which allows for 10% annual penalty free withdrawals. See below for rider cost.

Q: If I withdraw more than the penalty-free amount, will a Market Value Adjustment (MVA) be applied? A: Yes. You can read more about market value adjustments here.

Q: What happens after the initial 6 year rate guarantee period? A: You have a 30 day window to do whatever you want with the full cash value of your annuity. You can remove all of it or let your annuity renew into a new 6-year guarantee period.

Q: What happens to the money in my account if I die? A: You may purchse a rider which would allow your beneficiaries to receive the full account value as of the time of your death. Otherwise, the death benefit will be the surrender value of the contract. See below for rider cost.

Q: Does the Anchor MYGA have any available riders?
A:Yes. Please see the product brochure for descriptions of the available riders. To purchase any of these riders, the interest rates are reduced as follows:
