Athene Life Max Rate 3
Description
The Max Rate 3 is a flexible premium, fixed annuity with a three-year rate guarantee. Initial funds receive the three year rate lock, but additional funds can be added at the declared one-year rate guarantee. At the end of the three-year term, the full accumulated value is transferred into the one-year fixed strategy and all funds are completely liquid.
Lower rates are available on deposits between $10K-$99.9K. Some yearly crediting rates are state-specific and can be slightly lower. There are no surrender charges at passing.
