Hartford, Conn., Feb. 9, 2023 – Nassau Financial Group (“Nassau”) today introduced a new bonus fixed indexed annuity (“FIA”) to its product portfolio, Nassau Bonus AnnuitySM. Issued by Nassau Life and Annuity Company, this latest offering is a single premium accumulation-focused fixed indexed annuity with a premium bonus and guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit options.

- Bonus is not available for immediate withdrawal and the bonus amount and associated earnings are subject to a vesting schedule. The bonus amount may vary by age and is not intended to meet short-term financial goals. Contact your insurance producer for details.
- The principal is protected against market losses and guaranteed under the base contract. Applicable rider and indexed account strategy fees will be deducted from the contract value, and this could potentially result in a loss of principal if the contract has had interest credits less than the fees.
- Withdrawals exceeding the free withdrawal amount (also known as “excess withdrawals”) may be subject to surrender charges, recovery of non-vested premium bonus amounts, Market Value Adjustment, and pro-rated rider and strategy fees (if applicable). See the Product Summary and Product Disclosure for more information.
- Riders involve an annual fee of 0.95% that is based on a percentage of the income benefit base and is deducted annually from the contract value.

Annuities are long-term products particularly suitable for retirement assets. Annuities held within qualified plans do not provide any additional tax benefit. Early withdrawals may be subject to surrender charges. Withdrawals are subject to ordinary income tax, and if taken prior to age 59½, a 10% IRS penalty may also apply.
Products offering a bonus may offer less favorable credited interest rates, participation, and cap rates than products not offering a bonus. Over time, the amount of the bonus may be more than offset by these less favorable rates. Any non-vested premium bonus amounts will be repaid to the Company upon surrender, annuitization and withdrawals in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount.
Interest rates, participation rates, caps and strategy fees are subject to change. Nassau reserves the right to add, change or eliminate indexed account options.
