Advantage is not a security. It does not participate in the stock market or any index. It is an insurance contract designed to help you address your long-term retirement income needs. Advantage is a single premium fixed indexed annuity, which is a type of fixed annuity that earns interest based on changes in a market index, which measures how the market or part of the market performs.
