FIA and FA Crediting Rate REDUCTIONS “Changes” Reminder
In last week’s eNews, we alerted you to likely impending changes in MYGA and FIA crediting rates. Sure enough, during the past week we saw rate “change” notices from several carriers, where not only fixed rates were reduced but also reductions in caps and participation, some with very little notice. On top of this there was the stock market volatility.
We cannot predict when and what the next group of changes may occur. But in any case, this is still a perfect time to talk to your active and prospective clients about the unique value annuities provide for future savings, especially the downside protection offered by both FIA’s and FA’s.

Urgent – Should Annuity Producers Act Now? Important Impact News For All Annuity Producers
For the past few years, the interest rate environment has allowed our insurance carrier partners to offer historically high rates on both FIA and MYGA products. FIA performance has also benefited from generally modest level of market volatility. These factors have contributed to producers experiencing higher annuity sales volumes.
Among other factors, the 10-year Treasury yield is down almost 100 basis points from its peak this year and down more than 50 basis points in the last two weeks alone. The VIX Index, one indicator of potential market volatility, is currently more than double its average 2024 level. All these factors combine to cause significant downward pressure on annuity rates.
We are expecting that annuity insurance carriers will move quickly to reflect the current economic realities, with very short transition windows affecting MYGA, FIA and RILA rates and crediting plus GLWB roll-up and income factors.
We urge you to plan now to contact any clients where annuities should be part of their portfolio and to not hesitate to suggest they consider acting quickly. Contact your Cenco annuity team to help.
