Product analyst notes
How to think about this contract
Why it can stand out
- Carrier financial strength carries three independent ratings (A.M. Best, S&P, and Moody's), so the multi-year guaranteed rate is backed by a multi-agency view of carrier strength rather than a single-source read.
- Surrender ladder runs the full ten-year length on this filing but the back end of the schedule drops to zero in the late years — the contract is a long-term MYGA on paper, but the late-year surrender penalty falls away on its own.
- Free-withdrawal allowance and the full surrender ladder are visible on this page, so the penalty-free liquidity schedule is not gated behind a sales brochure.
- Term menu is published on the live feed, so a buyer can see the published guaranteed-rate term options side by side and pick the term that matches their planning horizon.
What to confirm
- Lincoln Select is not a guaranteed-lifetime-income product. There is no GLWB rider attached, and there are no strategies or caps — it is a flat-rate multi-year guarantee. Do not compare its payout side-by-side with a rider-led income FIA or a participating-rate product.
- The state footprint on this filing is narrower than Lincoln's other MYGAs — this filing does not publish into Guam or Puerto Rico, whereas the MyGuarantee Plus pair does. Confirm state availability for the buyer's jurisdiction before going further.
- Lincoln Select is a legacy MYGA on Lincoln's shelf. Lincoln markets MyGuarantee Plus and MyGuarantee Plus Class as the active filings; compare those before locking in.
- The contract carries an annual free-withdrawal allowance but no premium bonus and no death-benefit roll-up beyond the standard death benefit.
Not ideal for
Buyers who want index-linked upside (compare Lincoln's FIA shelf), a lifetime-income GLWB rider, a premium bonus, or live in California or New York.
