Based on annual compound interest Engaging Conversations: Accumulation Planning ACCUMULATION: A DOWNSIDE MARKET PROTECTION STRATEGY Building your savings to and through retirement A guide to meeting your accumulation needs Seeking growth when the risks are greater Meet Ben. Ben, a marketer of 30 years, is contributing the maximum amount to his employer s savings plan. He s also invested in an IRA to save even more for his retirement. In his 20s, Ben knew he had more time to recover from any market losses and had an aggressive growth strategy. But now that he s 55, Ben still wants to grow his money but is more cautious: he s adjusted his employer s retirement plan account to a more moderate strategy to help reduce his market risk. However, he hasn t decided what to do about his IRA. Ben looked at some options to potentially keep growing his money in his IRA: Invest for potential growth but with market risk OR Invest his money in safe alternatives Accumulation Planning Guide Ben s IRA portfolio is mostly invested in indexbased mutual funds. While this strategy offers him growth potential, there s the possibility of market losses too which will take time to recover. Time he may not have, depending on when he plans to retire. FYI: Recovering from losses may take time you don t have In 2008, the stock market crashed and 401(k) plan participants with $200,000 or more in their accounts saw the value of their portfolios drop by an average of more than 25%. 2 He also thought about traditional deposit products like CDs that offer relative safety. 1 But with interest rates at historic lows, would these types of products give him the growth he needed to help combat the rising costs of retirement? FYI: Inflation eats money for breakfast If you put $1,000,000 in a (very big) shoebox today, in 20 years, assuming a 2% rate of inflation, your million bucks would only be worth $672,971 in purchasing power in today s dollars. Why? Because inflation erodes the purchasing power of money. 3 Ben wants to focus on growing his money to support his future lifestyle expenses to do things he s never been able to do. But he s concerned that market declines may hinder his retirement dreams from coming true. Are his goals of growth and minimizing risk within his IRA mutually exclusive? Is there another option Ben hasn t considered? ¹ Traditional deposit products may be FDIC insured and CDs are bank products that are FDIC insured.

Building your savings to and through retirement A guide to meeting your accumulation needs Accumulation Planning Guide
Is how much do I need? the only question? When thinking about saving for retirement, people often focus on a specific number they need to reach. How much do I need? is their primary concern, and that s definitely an important consideration. But there s another key question: How do I keep growing my retirement assets as I near and enter retirement? This is especially important as your goals evolve and your ability to accept risk changes. That s the question this planning guide is designed to help you address. 1
Retirement is not a finish line it s a milestone along your way. From the moment people start saving for retirement, their focus is mostly on how large their accounts need to be before they can cross the finish line. This building period is all about when, as in when can I retire? But there are many reasons why you need to keep building even as you get closer to, and start, your retirement. This becomes especially clear when you consider some of the challenges that arise along the way, including taxes, personal and emotional shifts in your risk tolerance, the need to plan for a longer lifespan, and more. Thankfully, you have quite a few possibilities to help you meet those challenges. With sound planning, you can position yourself to increase your resources throughout your forties and fifties, into your sixties and possibly even during portions of your retirement. The key is to adapt your approach as you near this milestone and even after you begin living in retirement. It s important to think about building to and through retirement. First things first: during the to retirement time, you need to make sure you save enough for the essentials, such as food, transportation, shelter and expected medical care. Those are the building blocks of your retirement. But even after you ve saved enough to meet those basic needs, there are many reasons to stay focused on building. Because it s the lifestyle you lead that will define the quality of your retirement, not whether or not you re able to hire a plumber. Traveling, dining out, engaging in new activities, spending time with family (without becoming a financial burden) these are the hallmarks of one s golden years. By creating a plan to keep building your assets, you can not only secure an income that funds your essential needs but also prepare yourself to live out a retirement filled with the lifestyle you imagine. 52% of working-age households will be at risk of being unable to maintain their standard of living in retirement. 2017, Center for Retirement Research 2
Assessing risk tolerance There are challenges throughout all stages of building your savings, and as you approach retirement, your tolerance for risk may change. The ability to withstand losses financially and emotionally defines your risk tolerance. If you play it too safe, you could limit your gains and be disappointed with your choices. You might also regret pursuing an overly aggressive strategy. It s vital that you consider your goals and your retirement time-frame, because those factors, along with your ability to endure certain losses financially, will affect your tolerance for risk. Addressing challenges Managing taxes Taxes are a challenge to building your finances at all stages of life, but income taxes can prove to be the single largest expense in retirement.1 How you take payments, which accounts you withdraw from, and the order in which you withdraw can all increase or reduce your tax burden. 2 % Interest rates 12.06% 5-year CD yield in 1984 3,4 0.86% 5-year CD yield in 2016 3,4 In some instances, declining interest rates can reduce your predictable income payments. Be sure you know how much of your future lifestyle depends on growth tied to these rates. Inflation $24.09 The projected cost of a $5.99 burger meal 40 years from now. 5 Even a small rise in inflation can have a big impact on retirement. A solid strategy to keep building up to and into retirement should take this into account. Possible ways to keep on building Max out your 401(k) By making the maximum contribution allowable by law each year, you reduce your current tax expense and build for the future. Pre-retirement Make catch-up contributions If you re over 50 and still in the workforce, you are allowed to put even more of your money into retirement accounts. In 2017, individuals 50 and up can contribute up to $24,000 in a 401(k) and $6,500 in an IRA. Invest in stocks and mutual funds Purchasing stocks or mutual funds might provide growth through retirement, but proceeds may require you to pay taxes. 3
Market swings -$2.8 trillion Approximate amount Americans lost in their 401(k)s and IRAs after the market crash of 2008 6 +54% S&P 500 gain between early 2009 and late 2011 7 As you near and enter the through retirement period, market declines can have a more immediate impact on your income, and your ability to weather market swings might not be as strong. Increased life expectancy 83-94 years old Estimated life expectancy for women in 2050 8 83-85 years old Estimated life expectancy for men in 2050 8 It s funny to think of living longer as a risk, but when you live longer it means your income needs to live longer as well. Pre- and post-retirement Post-retirement Invest in Roth IRAs Unlike traditional IRAs, deposits to Roth IRAs are made with after-tax dollars. That means that come retirement, you ll be able to withdraw your money federal income tax free. Annuities By providing potential growth that is tax deferred, an annuity s investment earnings can accumulate and compound untouched by federal, state, or local income taxes until you begin making withdrawals, which is usually after retirement. 9 Delay Social Security benefits If you start taking Social Security at 66, you ll receive 100% of your monthly benefit. If you delay benefits for one year, you ll receive 108%, and the percentage keeps growing for every year you delay payments. By age 70, you will receive 132%. 10 Work part-time Working in retirement not only increases income but also has been found to lift energy-levels and provide higher amounts of personal satisfaction. 1 Source: finra.org/investors/taxation-retirement-income 2 Source: kiplinger.com/article/taxes/t055-c000-s002-how-6-types-of-retirement-income-are-taxed.html 3 Traditional deposit products may be FDIC insured and CDs are bank products that are FDIC insured.

Start the conversation 3 A well-planned retirement can provide some of the most fulfilling experiences and greatest times of your life. It s important to consider your strategies for building assets to and through this time. To get a full understanding of your needs and options, start a conversation with your advisor. Questions you might want to ask include Do my current retirement resources have the potential to grow during retirement? What approaches can I take to counteract the effects of inflation? Should I be making catch-up contributions? Can you help me determine my risk tolerance? Your financial professional can work with you to help you achieve your objectives with a strategy that s personalized for your retirement. 45

An alternative option: Use part of his retirement savings to purchase a ForeAccumulation fixed index annuity for: Moving forward: With ForeAccumulation, Ben will never experience any market-based losses. It locks in accrued values after every crediting period. So if Ben has elected an index-based interest crediting method that has negative performance, his contract value is not negatively impacted and there is no recovery necessary. Ben can continue to earn interest on his contract value without having to make up for a prior period s market loss, if any.4 Choice: With ForeAccumulation, the value of Ben s contract is tied to his chosen interest crediting strategies. There are a variety of choices and there are different methodologies, advantages and tradeoffs of each Ben can pick what best suits his needs. Tax-deferred growth: Ben s money will grow on a tax-deferred basis. That means faster growth since his money will earn interest on dollars that would otherwise be taxed. Accumulation benefit: One of the benefits of an FIA is the upside potential. ForeAccumulation includes a feature called Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Value (GMAV). This can provide Ben with an increase to the contract value at the earlier of his death 5 or at the end of the withdrawal charge period. However, the GMAV equals zero and terminates at the time of any withdrawal from the contract during the withdrawal charge period (including the free withdrawal amount). 6 Accessibility: Things happen and when they do, Ben may withdraw 10% of the beginning of year contract value annually without incurring a withdrawal charge. However, any withdrawal will terminate the GMAV.7 Death benefit proceeds: Ben s beneficiaries will get back what s left of his contract value, minus any withdrawals, as a death benefit.

Let s compare two different ways to grow assets for lifestyle expenses Since CDs won t give him the growth he s looking for, Ben considered the following two funding options for his IRA. Option 1: Ben keeps his money where it is Ben leaves his $100,000 IRA invested in index-based mutual funds. Account Value $100,000 $90,000 $99,000 Start of Year 1 End of Year 1 End of Year 2 Despite the 10% positive performance of the assets within his IRA, in year two, Ben s IRA value is still $1,000 less than his original $100,000. His IRA portfolio value is down 10% Account value: $90,000 Ben s IRA portfolio goes up 10% but: The 10% increase is applied to his $90,000 account value, not his original $100,000 10% x $90,000 = $9,000 $9,000 + $90,000 = $99,000 Option 2: Ben purchases ForeAccumulation Ben uses $100,000 for ForeAccumulation and chooses an interest crediting strategy linked, in part, to the S&P 500. 8 Contract Value $100,000 $100,000 $106,000 Start of Year 1 End of Year 1 End of Year 2 The S&P 500 Index linked to Ben s selected interest crediting method has a -10% return for the annual time period. The 10% negative performance of the S&P 500 Index linked to Ben s selected interest crediting method didn t reduce his contract value at the end of Year one. Due to the 10% positive performance of the S&P 500 Index in Year two, Ben is actually up $6,000 from his original $100,000. The S&P 500 Index linked to Ben s selected interest crediting method has a 10% return for the annual time period. Based on Ben s interest crediting method selection, his interest crediting is capped at 6%9 The 6% interest is credited to his $100,000 contract value 6% x $100,000 = $6,000 $6,000 + $100,000 = $106,000 This hypothetical example is for illustrative purposes only and is designed to illustrate the relationship between initial premium payment and growth opportunities. Assumes ForeAccumulation fixed index annuity contract purchased. A fixed index annuity is not a registered security or stock market investment and does not directly participate in any stock or equity investments or index. The Withdrawal Base is not available as a death benefit, or for surrender. Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of Forethought Life Insurance Company and assume compliance with the product s benefit rules, as applicable. 2
Simply Speak ng What is a fixed index annuity? A fixed index annuity or FIA is a savings vehicle that offers potential growth that s linked to an equity index (or multiple indices) like the S&P 500. 8 A typical feature of a FIA is a guaranteed minimum crediting rate which may make them suitable for people who are unwilling to risk market losses. Similar to fixed income vehicles, a FIA may help offset the volatility of the equities in a retirement strategy. With the ForeAccumulation fixed index annuity, you get two key things: 1. A contract value This is a sum of money that grows over time and can be accessed if necessary, subject to surrender charges. Every year, your contract value is credited based on the performance of whichever interest crediting method you choose. For example, your crediting method may be tied to an index like the S&P 500. 8 Note that negative performance will never cause your contract value to go down in value. At worst, poor market performance will result in 0% interest crediting for the time period involved. 9 2. An accumulation benefit In addition to the advantages of tax-deferred growth potential and protection against market declines, ForeAccumulation offers an accumulation benefit. Here s how it works: Let s say that the crediting method you selected would result in sustained 0% interest crediting to your account. If that were to happen, the contract value would increase to the Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Value (if it is higher than the Contract Value) at the end of the withdrawal charge period, assuming no withdrawals occur during the withdrawal charge period. 9 Please see the reverse of this flap and back page for additional important information regarding how ForeAccumulation works.

What option did he choose? ForeAccumulation provides Ben with growth potential to help him live out his retirement dreams. After talking it through with his financial advisor, Ben chose to purchase a ForeAccumulation annuity to: Give him upside potential Protect him from market declines Help him fund his lifestyle expenses in retirement To learn more about ForeAccumulation, ask your advisor for a personalized illustration and additional product details. Ben s Case Study Assumptions: The Option 1 hypothetical example assumes a hypothetical gross -10% market decline in Year 1 and a hypothetical gross 10% growth rate in Year 2 and assumes no fees, product charges or withdrawals are taken. Option 2: Ben selects a 100% allocation to the Annual Point to Point Strategy (based on S&P 500 Index) with a cap of 6%. The 6% cap used in this example is hypothetical and not an indication of the caps currently available. An annual cap is the highest rate of interest that will be credited to a fixed index annuity annual cap strategy. Caps for each policy are guaranteed one contract year at a time, and are re-determined annually by the company for each contract. Additional Important Product Information 4 A Market Value Adjustment may be applied on withdrawals made during the withdrawal charge period. 5 State variations apply. 6 The GMAV is a separate value tracked independently from your contract value. It may grow at each contract anniversary by a stated percentage rate during the withdrawal charge period. If you wait until after your chosen withdrawal charge period to take a withdrawal, your actual account value will be compared to the GMAV at the end of the withdrawal charge period. Your Contract Value will be set to the greater of the two values. 7 Early withdrawal charges and market value adjustments may also apply. Withdrawals may reduce any optional guaranteed amounts in an amount more than the actual withdrawal. 8 The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index and is not available for direct investment. 9 Interest crediting methods vary and may involve different methodologies such as fixed rates, index caps and spreads and are declared in advance and guaranteed for the entire strategy term. An annual cap is the highest rate of interest that will be credited to a fixed index annuity annual cap strategy. Index based crediting methods credit 0% if the index performance is less than or equal to the spread.
This strategy may involve the purchase of a fixed index annuity (FIA) with a benefit provided for a charge. FIAs are typically meant for long-term savings purposes. Withdrawals during the early years may incur a withdrawal charge, assessed as a percentage of the withdrawal. Withdrawal charges vary by product. FIAs are insurance contracts, not securities, and do not directly participate in any stock, bond, or equity investments. Contract owners are not buying shares of any stock or index, even though index performance may indirectly affect contract values. Index-based crediting methods may experience years with 0% crediting. Though crediting is determined, in part, by the performance of an equity index, the credited rate is typically subject to a cap or a spread. Additional benefits vary by product and may be subject to charges.
