Barron’s names Global Atlantic among 100 Best Annuities for Income and Growth

New York, NY (July 27, 2022)  — Global Atlantic Financial Group (“Global Atlantic”), a leading financial services company, today announced its inclusion in the annual  Barron’s list of the Best Annuities. Annuities issued by Global Atlantic subsidiary Forethought Life Insurance Company were recognized by Barron’s in the Registered Index-Linked Annuities and Fixed-Indexed Annuities categories.

ForeStructured Growth, the firm’s registered index-linked annuity (RILA), was recognized as a top choice among “buffer-style RILAs.” This  recently-launched annuity provides contract holders with meaningful growth potential alongside interest crediting strategies designed to limit the risk of performance losses.

ForeAccumulation II Advisory, one of the firm’s core fixed-indexed annuities (FIA), was recognized as a top choice “for investors who want principal protection and returns potentially higher than plain fixed-rate products.” This annuity offers growth potential with no market losses, as well as an optional benefit to guarantee the growth of your death benefit.1

The Barron’s annual list is a compilation of “100 competitive contracts based on common investor objectives and a set of assumptions, such as an investor’s age and investment size.” The annuities included in this list are issued by companies with an A.M. Best Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A- or above.2 Global Atlantic’s insurance companies hold an FSR of rating of A (Excellent – Third highest of 13) from A.M. Best.3

“At Global Atlantic, we are focused on providing meaningful solutions to help individuals address their retirement savings, income and protection needs,” said Rob Arena, Co-President and Head of Individual Markets at Global Atlantic. “It’s an honor to have our solutions recognized by Barron’s for the value they offer to our customers.”
