Legacy Marketing, Malibu Life launch two fixed indexed annuities

Business Wire

PETALUMA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Legacy today announced the release of two new fixed indexed annuities (FIAs) with carrier partner Malibu Life. Issued by Malibu Life’s Texas-domiciled insurance company TruSpire Retirement Insurance Company, PillarMark^SM with MultiRider^SM offers competitive lifetime income with a 10-year wait (or age 85, whichever comes first), while SpireMark^SM with MultiRider Max^SM provides greater retirement planning flexibility with the potential to begin income earlier.

“PillarMark and SpireMark were both developed with the goal of addressing a wide variety of client needs—starting with the potential for increasing income for life,” said Legacy President Preston Pitts. “But, whether clients are looking for a way to lay a foundation for their future down the road, start taking early income, or address other retirement concerns such as paying for unexpected health care costs or leaving a larger legacy, these FIAs offer the potential for powerful solutions.”

To help address a myriad of needs that are top of mind for retirees, PillarMark and SpireMark offer a lifetime income source, benefits that can enhance quality of life, and an Enhanced Death Benefit to help support beneficiaries. These products include a Benefit Base Bonus to kick-start income and benefit potential. The Benefit Base has the potential to increase for life, based on interest credited to the annuity, with roll-ups both before and after income activation. The higher the Benefit Base grows, the greater the income and benefits.

PillarMark and SpireMark include 10 available allocation options, including the Bloomberg Bitcoin US 100 10% Index, the Nasdaq-100 HiCap™ Index, the Solactive Nasdaq-100 DART 10% Index, a fixed account, and more. Pre-bundled Allocation Blueprints provide simplified diversification and may offer higher rates and caps than individually selected options. The preset Allocation Blueprints are designed to align with a client’s preferred earnings approach, from conservative to aggressive.

“Retirement looks different for every individual, and we believe the products we bring to market should reflect that,” said Todd Shriber, Chief Executive Officer of Malibu Life. “PillarMark and SpireMark combine compelling income potential with the flexibility and choice clients need to plan for retirement on their terms. Both products reflect our focus on building innovative solutions that deliver meaningful value and help clients approach retirement with greater confidence.”

“Partnering with Malibu Life is an important step as we expand our carrier relationships and enhance the retirement planning solutions we offer,” Pitts added. “Together, we’re focused on delivering value to consumers while simplifying the experience for independent advisors.”

PillarMark and SpireMark are issued by TruSpire, which has been rated “A-” by KBRA and B++ by AM Best for financial strength.* For more information about PillarMark and SpireMark, please visit the Legacy Marketing Group website.
