More flexibility and confidence: The latest updates to Protective%%®%% Dimensions V variable annuity
May 1, 2025
Protective Dimensions V variable annuity now offers more payout options, enhanced legacy protection, and greater investment flexibility. It provides tailored solutions to align with your clients' goals. Applications submitted on or after May 1, 2025 can take advantage of these new enhancements.

The latest enhancements

 

Advance payout options: Recognizing evolving retirement needs, the new payout options offer flexible income structuring. Clients can choose an increased withdrawal for 3, 5, 8, or 10 years to defer Social Security benefits and bridge an income gap, followed by a reduced lifetime annual withdrawal that provides guaranteed lifetime income, even if the contract value falls to zero.1

 

New Maximum Daily Value death benefit: Lock in market gains each contract day for enhanced legacy protection, regardless of market volatility.

 

SecurePay NHSM enhancements: This benefit now includes a higher withdrawal rate cap of up to 15% for a duration of up to 5 years for qualifying clients who are confined to a nursing home. This strengthens the guarantee of lifetime income and provides greater stability, even in uncertain markets.2

 

Investment lineup update: The addition of First Trust Multi Income Allocation Portfolio I and First Trust Dow Jones Dividend & Income Portfolio I provide a wider range of investment choices.
