Like traditional fixed annuities, index annuities offer minimum guarantees2 on earned interest, but also offer the potential for higher interest crediting rates. Index annuity crediting rates are based in part on a formula that takes into account the performance of one or more market indices, potentially allowing for higher interest crediting rates than those on traditional fixed annuities. This means that LSW index annuity policy owners were able to reap some excellent rewards from the rebound in the S&P 500® and Russell 2000® indices during the period between March 2009 and March 2010.3
