The Guardian Guaranteed Income AnnuitySM – designed to help you GUARANTEE PAYMENTS for retirement

Entering into retirement may be a pivotal point in your life. It is a time of change. It is a time when you will need to make certain decisions about your accumulated retirement assets, decisions that may shape your lifestyle during retirement to what you envision it could be…or not.

You may be asking:
  • How long will my retirement last?
  • How long will my accumulated retirement assets last?
  • Am I confident that my retirement assets will be able to support my lifestyle during a prolonged down market?
  • Will I need to reduce or eliminate some of my comfort-living activity expenses, like my club membership fees, dining out or going to the movies?
  • Can I create a guaranteed stream of payments with some of my money?

An immediate annuity may be the right product for you to consider purchasing with some of your assets. An immediate annuity provides income (annuity payments) to you from a single premium payment made to the issuing insurance company in return for the contract (annuity). The issuing insurance company, in turn, will make annuity payments to you for a set amount of time (period certain) or for the rest of your life (life option). The annuity payments are guaranteed by the insurance company to last for the amount of time you choose, so it is important to choose a product from a reputable and stable insurance company.

The Guardian Guaranteed Income AnnuitySM is an immediate annuity issued by The Guardian Insurance & Annuity Company, Inc. (GIAC). Purchasing The Guardian Guaranteed Income Annuity with some of the assets you have earmarked for retirement will allow you to:

  • Guarantee the amount of your income from a single premium payment.
  • Create a source of income through the product’s guaranteed annuity payments that will last for an amount of time that you choose or for your lifetime; and
  • Receive these payments on a frequency – monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually – that suits your needs.
