Create a Guaranteed Legacy Your Clients Can Count On

October 3, 2023

Have you heard about Legacy Max enhanced death benefit rider available exclusively on the ECI Plus annuity? This optional rider helps your clients create a lasting legacy.

How Does Legacy Max Work?

Typical death benefit riders have one growth component. The Legacy Max has two. These two underlying growth components provide both opportunities for guaranteed growth in declining markets as well as performance-based growth in positive markets.

Each year the death benefits increases by the greater of:*

  1. 6% annual compounded growth 
  2. Double the amount of the interest credited to the annuity

Additional Legacy Max features include:

  • Available up to age 80 at issue
  • RMD friendly
  • Flexible payout options including a lump sum payment
  • Death benefit grows to age 85 or for seven years, whichever is longer
  • Partial interest crediting available
  • No medical underwriting
