Annuity FYI has announced that Ohio National's ONcore Value Variable Annuities now offer a new GMIB rider called the Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit Plus With Annual Reset Rider. Ohio National's ONcore Value had been selected as Annuity FYI's Featured Variable Annuity.
New York, NY (PRWeb) February 9, 2007 -- Annuity FYI (www.annuityfyi.com) has announced that its Featured Variable Annuity -- Ohio National's ONcore Value --- is even better now. All of Ohio National's ONcore Variable Annuities now offer a new and improved GMIB rider called the Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit Plus With Annual Reset Rider (GMIB Plus AR) with up to 6% dollar-for-dollar annual withdrawals.
Like Ohio National's previous GMIB rider, the new GMIB Plus AR guarantees the greater of total purchase payments accumulated at 6%, or your highest contract anniversary value (both adjusted for withdrawals), whichever is greater. But with the new GMIB Plus AR, if your contract value increases, you can lock in the higher contract value on each contract anniversary and earn the 6% compounding on the new, higher value.
This is the least expensive variable annuity we've found that offers a living income benefit with annual reset, lets you earn a guaranteed rate based on a higher contract anniversary value, and contains a guaranteed roll-up death benefit. We've always thought that the living income benefit and death benefit are second to none in the industry, and now Ohio National has made it even better with the GMIB Plus AR.
For example, take a hypothetical $100,000 investment that at the end of year 5 had grown to $154,000 and at the end of year 10 to $155,000, an average rate of return over 10 years of just under 4.5%. Ohio National's previous GMIB would have guaranteed $179,084 - 6% per year over 10 years, regardless of market performance. With the new GMIB Plus AR, the investor could reset at year 5, and earn 6% per year off of $154,000 for a year-10 Guaranteed Income Base of over $206,000 (assuming no withdrawals). Rider charge at reset may be higher than original rate.
In the above example where the investor resets at the end of year 5 and has a Guaranteed Income Base of over $206,000 at year 10, at that time the investor could take out $1,030 per month without touching the $206,000, which could be annuitized in the future, even if the contract value dropped to as low as $5,000. For investors who need current income, up to 6% dollar-for-dollar annual withdrawals are available immediately. The annual fee for the GMIB Plus AR is 0.70% of the Guaranteed Income Base at contract anniversary.
