S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap rate

10% cap on S&P 500

A nine-year-surrender fixed indexed annuity from Nassau Life with no premium bonus and the highest S&P 500 base cap of any Nassau filing, accumulation-focused crediting across the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 with both fee-free and fee-bearing higher-participation alternatives, an annual free-withdrawal allowance, three surrender-charge waivers, and a B-grade A.M. Best carrier rating — not available in New York or Maine.

1-year term10-year surrenderDoes not vary by premiumAdvisorWorld + CANNEX data

Best fit

Buyers committed to a multi-year deferral who want clean accumulation crediting at the highest available Nassau S&P cap, do not need a premium bonus, value the choice between fee-free participation designs and higher-participation fee-bearing strategies, and are comfortable with a B-grade A.M. Best carrier rating in exchange for the headline cap on this contract.

Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • Highest S&P 500 base cap rate of any Nassau Life FIA filing on the live feed — buyers who want clean accumulation crediting without paying for a premium bonus through a lower cap get more upside per unit of S&P performance on this chassis than on either of the bonus-bearing sibling filings.
  • Crediting menu spans recognizable benchmark indexes (S&P 500, Nasdaq-100) alongside both fee-free participation designs and fee-included higher-participation alternatives, so a buyer can pick the mechanic that best fits their view — a clean S&P cap for like-for-like comparison, a fee-free Nasdaq participation rate, or higher participation in exchange for an explicit strategy fee.
  • An annual free-withdrawal allowance plus three contract-level surrender-charge waivers (nursing home, RMD, terminal illness), so required-minimum-distribution withdrawals for qualified buyers and the events the waivers cover do not trigger a surrender charge.
  • Both single and joint annuitization options are available, and the contract accepts non-qualified and qualified funds, so couples planning a joint-life payout and buyers using IRA money are both inside the product's accepted-funds and payout-options envelope.

What to confirm

  • Carrier financial-strength on this contract carries a B-grade A.M. Best rating rather than the A-grade tier most large FIA issuers hold, and the page shows only a single agency view rather than a multi-agency corroboration. Buyers prioritizing the strongest available carrier-credit profile should weigh that against the headline rate across a multi-year commitment.
  • This contract has no guaranteed-lifetime-withdrawal rider attached — the live feed shows an empty income-rider list — and there is no built-in Protected Income Value. Do not compare its payout side-by-side with a rider-led income FIA; the contract is built for accumulation, not for a guaranteed lifetime payout.
  • There is no premium bonus on this contract — buyers wanting an upfront bonus to enlarge the working balance should evaluate the sibling bonus-bearing Nassau filings, accepting that those carry a lower headline cap and (on the larger-bonus chassis) a longer surrender commitment and a halved free-withdrawal allowance.
  • This contract is not available to residents of New York or Maine — Nassau Life offers separate New York-specific products. The surrender ladder runs nine years, and there is no death-benefit roll-up beyond the standard contract value. The fee-included Strategy Fee and Sunrise Adjustment strategies advertise higher participation rates than the clean S&P cap, but the explicit strategy fee subtracts from the indexed credit each term — evaluate fee-bearing strategies net of the fee, not headline-only.

Not ideal for

Buyers who need a contractually guaranteed GLWB-rider withdrawal rate or built-in Protected Income Value income, want a premium bonus credited at issue, require an A-grade A.M. Best carrier rating or multi-agency financial-strength corroboration before committing principal, want a death-benefit roll-up beyond the standard contract value, want to compare crediting strategies on headline participation rate without netting out the explicit strategy fee, or live in New York or Maine — none of those are what this contract is built to deliver.

Common questions about Nassau Growth Annuity

● Can I lose money in Nassau Growth Annuity?

A negative index return by itself does not reduce the contract's account value: Nassau Growth Annuity credits 0% — the floor — for that indexed period. The account value can still decrease from applicable rider fees, Performance Rate Rider or other strategy charges, administrative charges, withdrawals, surrender charges, or other contract-specific deductions. In years with no credited interest, those deductions can reduce the account value. Up to 10% of your value can be withdrawn each year without a charge; withdrawals above the penalty-free amount during the surrender period can incur a surrender charge.

● Is the Amplified Income Plus Rider income rider worth the 0.95% fee?

It depends on whether you will use the guaranteed income. If you are accumulating only, you can skip it. If you want guaranteed lifetime income later, the 3% roll-up and 3.84% withdrawal rate can make it worthwhile — model it in the Income tab of the analyzer above.

● How do Nassau Growth Annuity's crediting strategies compare?

Use "Compare against" in the analyzer to overlay another current Nassau Growth Annuity strategy on the same premium, age, years, and hypothetical index path. The control labels the strategy type, rate, index, and context so caps, participation rates, triggers, spreads, and fixed-account choices are not treated as interchangeable.

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Nassau Growth Annuity currently shows 54 distinct indexed or fixed crediting choices across 70 displayed rate entries, including S&P 500 Index, with 16 volatility-controlled index options grouped separately. These choices matter because caps, participation rates, fixed accounts, spreads, renewal terms, and fee-bearing rider variants are different mechanics and should not be ranked as one simple rate list.

  • S&P 500 Index: 9% annual cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 10% annual cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 9% annual point-to-point cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 10% annual point-to-point cap

Income rider language

What to look for before treating the rider as income

Amplified Income Plus Rider is the main income rider listed for this product. Rider terms can affect the tradeoff between future lifetime withdrawals, contract value, beneficiary value, and cost, so the exact state version and rider election should be confirmed before comparing it to annuitization or income-only contracts.

  • 3.84% withdrawal rate
  • 0.95% rider fee
  • 10 deferral years

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
  • Nursing home waiver
  • RMD waiver
  • Terminal illness waiver

Verification note

Use carrier materials as term evidence, then confirm the current version

Carrier materials such as A5179PO.pdf help explain the contract language behind the data on this page; the latest document activity we see is Apr 8, 2026. For the current brochure, rate sheet, or specimen contract, confirm the state-specific version with the carrier or a licensed financial professional.

  • Rates and rider terms can vary by state and issue age
  • Carrier guarantees depend on claims-paying ability
  • Current contract forms should be confirmed before purchase
