Is a Guaranteed Interest Annuity for me?
A Guaranteed Interest Annuity can be appropriate for different life stages, and can be customized to meet your unique short- or longer-term needs. Whether you’ve recently accepted your first job or your first big promotion, it’s a wise choice if you’re looking for:
- a low-risk way to save towards a short-term goal – like a vacation, a wedding, or a new car
- a simple way to earn more – the more money you invest, the higher the rate⁴!
- an easier, faster way to ensure your beneficiaries⁵ receive funds⁶ directly when you pass away
- creditor protection – when you name an eligible beneficiary, your GIA may be safeguarded from creditors.
