5.35% – 6.10% APY Fixed

The modern high-yield alternative to bank CDs. Locks in a fixed annual compound interest rate for 3, 5, or 7 years with 100% tax-deferred compounding.

  • Guaranteed annual yield higher than traditional bank CDs
  • No annual 1099 tax erosion during accumulation
  • Annual 10% penalty-free withdrawal allowances
  • Backed by state insurance guaranty association

Single Premium Immediate (SPIA)

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I roll over an active 401(k) while still working in Asheville?

Many corporate retirement plans permit an "in-service rollover" once employees reach age 59½. This allows you to transfer a portion of your 401(k) into a principal-protected annuity while continuing to contribute to your company plan.

What is the statutory "Free Look" review window?

In North Carolina, consumers have a mandatory 30-day "Free Look" window to review the issued policy contract and cancel for a 100% full refund with zero surrender penalties.
