Information & Articles about Transamerica

Fixed Annuity Market Challenges

A very good article from Darla Mercado at Investment News discusses the current challenges that insurers face in the fixed annuity market.

The challenges basically involve two issues:

Aegon Modifying U.S. Variable Annuity Products

The Dutch insurance and financial services giant Aegon appears to be rethinking its U.S. based variable annuity business.

It is reported that Aegon is making a move to apply a macro equity hedge to its in-force variable annuity contracts.

The company is also considering the sale of its life reinsurance business, Transamerica Re.

Standalone Living Benefits Provide Guaranteed Income without Annuities

The standalone living benefit (“SALB”) is a relatively new and innovative product in the retirement income arena.

A SALB is basically the same thing as the guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit (GLWB) that accompanies many variable annuities. The GLWB feature allows the contract holder to withdraw a fixed percentage of the total annuity premiums each year regardless of market performance.
