S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap

8% cap on S&P 500

A short-surrender (five-year) accumulation-focused fixed indexed annuity from A-plus-rated Midland National with an S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap, a proprietary participation-rate menu, and an annual free-withdrawal allowance — no income rider attached.

1-year termAdvisorWorld + CANNEX data

Best fit

Buyers who want fixed-indexed accumulation potential without committing to the usual 7-to-10-year FIA surrender chassis, are comfortable holding both a recognizable index cap and proprietary participation-rate strategies, and don't need a lifetime-income rider.

Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • Short 5-year surrender period is unusually short for an FIA — most accumulation-led FIAs run 7 to 10 years, so this filing fits a buyer who is not willing to lock up money for the longer chassis the category usually demands.
  • A-plus rated carrier (A.M. Best) — Midland National is one of the larger, longer-tenured fixed-annuity writers in the U.S.
  • Crediting menu mixes a recognizable S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap with participation-rate strategies on proprietary volatility-controlled indexes, so buyers can hold both a like-for-like and a higher-participation alternative inside one contract.
  • Annual penalty-free withdrawal allowance is preserved across the full surrender window — meaningful liquidity for an FIA.

What to confirm

  • There is no income rider on this contract — Accelerate 5 is an accumulation product, not an income product. Buyers planning around lifetime income need to look at one of Midland's income-rider-bearing filings (Capital Income, IncomeVantage Pro, Summit Edge series) instead.
  • Several strategies use proprietary, volatility-controlled indexes (S&P MARC, Fidelity Multifactor Yield, S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA, Nasdaq-100 Volatility Control). Their participation rates look high in absolute terms but are not directly comparable to an S&P 500 cap — evaluate each strategy on its own historical behavior.
  • Some strategies are fee-bearing variants — the published rate on those is gross of the strategy fee, so the buyer's net credit is lower than the cap or participation rate the row advertises. Confirm which variant you are buying before comparing rates head-to-head.
  • Market value adjustment applies on early surrender on top of the surrender-charge schedule, and the nursing-home waiver is the only penalty waiver in the contract — RMD and terminal-illness waivers are not in the published filing.
  • Filed in 50 jurisdictions (every state and DC except New York) — New York residents are not on this filing.

Not ideal for

Anyone planning around lifetime income (no rider on this product), anyone who needs an RMD or terminal-illness surrender waiver, anyone who may need full liquidity beyond the annual free-withdrawal allowance inside the 5-year window (MVA layers on top of the surrender charge), and New York residents (not filed there).

Income riders

Accumulation-focused — no income rider

This contract is designed for tax-deferred accumulation, not guaranteed lifetime income. No GLWB rider was returned because none is part of the contract design — compare against other accumulation FIAs on cap, participation rate, and surrender terms rather than lifetime income.

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Accelerate 5 currently shows 10 distinct indexed or fixed crediting choices across 20 current rate listings, including S&P 500 Index, S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index (USD) ER, and Nasdaq-100 Volatility Control 12% Index, with 4 volatility-controlled index options grouped separately. These choices matter because caps, participation rates, fixed accounts, spreads, and renewal terms are different mechanics and should not be ranked as one simple rate list.

  • S&P 500 Index: 8% cap
  • S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index (USD) ER: 70% participation
  • S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA Index (USD) ER: 85% participation

Liquidity terms

Why access rules deserve as much attention as rates

A fixed indexed annuity can preserve more control than an income-only contract, but access is still governed by the surrender schedule, free-withdrawal terms, and waiver language. Those details are where many product comparisons become more meaningful than a simple rate list.

  • 10%/yr free withdrawal
  • 5 surrender years
  • Nursing home waiver
