The hypothetical examples cited uses the Portfolio Impact Report (PIR) engine developed by Allianz Investment Management U.S. LLC (AIM US) which demonstrates the probability of achieving retirement goals by using model hypothetical portfolios and 20,000 Monte Carlo simulations. The PIR tool is used to show how adding an annuity to a portfolio may quantitatively improve the likelihood of portfolio success. The PIR tool is not intended as an individualized financial planning tool.
Fixed index annuities are designed to meet long-term needs for retirement income. They provide guarantees against the loss of principal and credited interest, tax deferred accumulation potential, and the reassurance of a death benefit for beneficiaries.

The indexes available within the contract are constructed to keep track of diverse segments of the U.S. or international markets, or specific market sectors. These indexes are benchmarks only. Indexes can have different constituents and weighting methodologies. Some indexes have multiple versions that can weight components or may track the impact of dividends differently. Although an index may affect interest credited, clients cannot purchase, directly participate in, or receive dividend payments from any of them through the index annuity contract.
Withdrawals from an annuity may be subject to ordinary federal and state income taxes. You may also be subject to a 10% federal additional tax if you take withdrawals prior to age 59½.
Annuity guarantees are backed solely by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.
