Allianz Index Advantage+® Variable Annuity

Index Advantage+®, our core registered index-linked annuity (RILA), is designed to help you accumulate money for retirement. It can give you long-term growth potential – plus a level of protection through multiple index options.

Index Advantage+® offers a different risk/return consideration from traditional accumulation products and is designed to complement your portfolio. It provides indexed return potential with the opportunity for varying levels of protection through multiple index options, tax-deferred growth potential, a variety of lifetime annuity payout options, and a death benefit during the accumulation phase.

RILAs are subject to investment risk, including possible loss of principal. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate with market conditions so that units, upon distribution, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Indexes available with the Allianz Index Advantage+® Variable Annuity RILA index strategies

Because indexes may perform differently under similar market conditions, Index Advantage+® offers five indexes.

 
S&P 500® Index: A large-cap American stock market index based on market capitalizations of 500 companies. Often considered one of the best overall representations of the U.S. stock market.
 
Russell 2000® Index: A small-cap stock market index of the smallest 2,000 companies in the Russell 3000 index. A common benchmark for companies that identify as small-cap based on market capitalization.
 
Nasdaq-100® Index: A large-cap market index that includes 100 of the largest domestic and international nonfinancial securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
 
iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF: An exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the investment results of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. The underlying index may include large- and mid-capitalization companies.
 
EURO STOXX 50®: An international stock market index that provides a blue-chip representation of supersector leaders in the Eurozone. The index covers 50 stocks from 11 Eurozone countries.

Although an index or indexes will affect your index option values, the index options do not directly participate in any stock or equity investment and are not a direct investment in an index.

You could experience a loss during a term if the index declines more than the level of downside protection. You may not be able to participate fully in a market recovery due to limits on positive returns in subsequent terms.

Purchasing an annuity within a retirement plan that provides tax deferral under sections of the Internal Revenue Code results in no additional tax benefit. An annuity should be used to fund a qualified plan based upon the annuity’s features other than tax deferral. All annuity features, risks, limitations, and costs should be considered prior to purchasing an annuity within a tax-qualified retirement plan.

Withdrawals will reduce contract values (including any Cash Value) and the value of any potential protection benefits. Withdrawals taken within the period stated in the prospectus will be subject to a withdrawal charge or a Market Value Adjustment (MVA), depending on the product. All withdrawals are subject to ordinary income tax and, if taken prior to age 59½, may be subject to a 10% federal additional tax.
