Topsider Benefits
Enhanced Growth Potential
By using annual gains to increase participation rates, clients can seize opportunities presented by traditional market cycles to potentially maximize returns over time.
Principal Protection
Clients can enjoy the benefits of increased participation rates without risking their account value, ensuring safety alongside growth.
Convenience
The default 50% participation rate increase allows clients to take advantage of increased growth potential without having to make additional decisions each year.
Flexibility
With the flexibility to choose from 0%, 50%, or 75% participation rate increases, clients can adjust their strategy to optimize their growth potential based on their risk tolerance and market conditions.
The Gain Control Option
The Gain Control Option allows clients to increase their participation percentage by applying a portion of their index credit to purchase a higher rate for the upcoming contract year. This feature provides clients the opportunity to maximize potential returns over time without risking their existing account value.
Automatic Setting
Oceanview sets a 50% participation rate increase for the second contract year unless the client or their agent specifies otherwise before the contract anniversary.
Annual Selection
Recognizing that financial goals and market conditions evolve, clients may modify their Gain Control Option percentage each contract anniversary. Clients may maintain the 50% setting, opt out entirely, or select a 75% increase. Decisions must be finalized before any interest for the new contract year accrues.
