Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • Newly filed in early 2026 — Summit Laddered is one of Midland's most recent filings and positioned as a laddered fixed-rate FIA chassis. The 'laddered' framing signals a multi-period guarantee structure inside the contract.
  • Two surrender-term variants are filed under one product (a shorter and a longer chassis), letting buyers match the commitment to their need-the-money-back timeline rather than being locked into a single chassis length.
  • A-plus rated carrier (A.M. Best) — Midland National is one of the larger U.S. fixed-annuity writers.
  • Annual penalty-free withdrawal allowance plus nursing-home and RMD surrender-charge waivers — meaningful liquidity for an FIA chassis.

What to confirm

  • The live AdvisorWorld feed for this product currently shows current rates only on the fixed-rate strategy rows — annual point-to-point cap rates on recognizable indexes are not published right now. Confirm current declared caps with the carrier before signing; this page cannot show a like-for-like cap comparison until the feed reloads.
  • There is no income rider on this contract — Summit Laddered is an accumulation / safety-leaning product, not an income product.
  • Market value adjustment applies on early surrender on top of the surrender-charge schedule.
  • Filed in 48 jurisdictions (every state and DC except California, New York, and Oregon) — residents of those three states are not on this filing. State coverage on this newly filed product is materially narrower than on the rest of Midland's lineup.
  • Premium minimum is published on the live feed and reflects a six-figure floor — positioned for the high-balance rollover market.
  • Death benefit is the cash surrender value — no enhanced or step-up death benefit on this contract.

Not ideal for

Anyone planning around lifetime income (no rider on this product), anyone shopping below the published premium minimum, anyone who needs a published cap rate to make the buying decision today (the live feed currently shows only the fixed-rate floor), anyone who may need full liquidity inside the surrender window (MVA layers on top), and residents of California, New York, or Oregon (not filed in any of those states).

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Summit Laddered currently shows 2 distinct indexed or fixed crediting choices across 3 current rate listings, including Fixed Account, with 1 volatility-controlled index option 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.

  • Fixed Account: 4.85% fixed

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
  • 7 surrender years
  • Nursing home waiver
  • RMD waiver
