AXA updates Accumulator VA

By Editorial Staff   Wed, Oct 12, 2011

The Accumulator Series, introduced in 1995, now has a higher deferral bonus roll-up.

AXA Equitable Life Insurance Co. has updated its flagship Accumulator series of variable annuities. Introduced in 1995, the product series now offers a 5½% compounded deferral bonus “roll-up” rate on the benefit base to age 85 or until the first withdrawal, whichever is first.

When withdrawals of lifetime income begin, the benefit base continues to compound at 5%, which the client can either take immediately or leave in the contract to further increase the lifetime income going forward.
