A balanced approach with flexible income options

Allianz 360™ is designed to help you accumulate for retirement and provide a steady stream of income after you retire. Because it’s a fixed index annuity (FIA), it offers tax-deferred growth potential, protects your principal and credited interest from market downturns, and provides a death benefit for beneficiaries.

Features of Allianz 360™

Before you take income

Beginning at age 40, your lifetime income withdrawal percentage will increase every year before starting lifetime income withdrawals. You will also receive an interest bonus² with a credit of 105% of the interest that is credited to your contract until withdrawals begin or until the 360 Benefit rider is terminated, whichever comes first.

Index Lock

React to volatility by locking in a positive index value at any point during the crediting period. Index Lock can assure you receive a positive index credit, no matter what happens in the market during the remainder of the crediting period. ³

After you turn on income

When you’re ready to start taking income Allianz 360™ and its 360 Benefit rider give you the option to choose predictable income, or income that has the potential to increase each crediting period.

Allocation options

An allocation option is the combination of an index – such as the S&P 500® Index – and a crediting method. Allianz 360™ lets you choose among the following indexes (options may vary by state).

S&P 500® Index

Considered by many to be the most common benchmark used in measuring the performance of U.S. stock market large-caps, which are companies with a market capitalization value of more than $10 billion. The S&P 500® Index represents a broad cross-section of common stocks traded on every major U.S. stock exchange. The Index is a selection of 500 leading companies from 100 distinct industry groups found in 10 leading American industrial market sectors.

Available with the monthly sum and annual point-to-point with a cap crediting methods (see descriptions below).

Bloomberg US Dynamic Balance II ER Index

The Bloomberg US Dynamic Balance II ER Index is comprised of the Bloomberg US Equity Custom Futures ER Index and the Bloomberg US Aggregate Custom RBI Unfunded Index and shifts weighting between them daily based on historical realized volatility. In order to manage index volatility during times of high volatility the index weights may not add up to 100%. The Bloomberg US Equity Custom Futures ER Index is a custom index that tracks futures on large-cap equities, similar to futures on the S&P 500® Index. The Bloomberg US Aggregate Custom RBI Unfunded Index is a custom index designed to track futures prices on the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index – a well-established benchmark for the U.S. bond markets. The Bloomberg US Dynamic Balance II ER Index uses an excess return methodology by tracking the price of futures. Futures prices reflect the expected future price of an index and account for expected dividends. The excess return structure is designed to create a level of stability in your participation rate (for the associated crediting method) from year to year by mitigating the impact of short-term interest rates on renewal rates.

Available with annual point-to-point with a participation rate and 2-year or 5-year MY point-to-point with a participation rate crediting methods (see description below).

PIMCO Tactical Balanced ER Index

The PIMCO Tactical Balanced ER Index is comprised of the U.S. Equity Futures Custom Index, a bond component comprised of the PIMCO Synthetic ER Bond Index with a duration overlay, and shifts weighting between them daily based on historical realized volatility of the components. In order to manage index volatility during times of high volatility the index weights may not add up to 100%. The U.S. Equity Futures Custom Index is a custom index that tracks futures on large-cap equities, similar to futures the S&P 500 Index. The PIMCO Synthetic Bond ER Index is a custom index comprised of a small number of instruments designed to provide exposure to futures on U.S. investment-grade and Treasury bond markets. The duration overlay adjusts the interest rate exposure in response to changes in market trends. The PIMCO Tactical Balanced ER Index uses an excess return methodology by tracking the price of futures. Futures prices reflect the expected future price of an index and account for expected dividends. The excess return structure is designed to create a level of stability in your participation rate (for the associated crediting method) from year to year by mitigating the impact of short-term interest rates on renewal rates.

Available with annual point-to-point with a participation rate and 2-year or 5-year MY point-to-point with a participation rate crediting methods (see description below).

BlackRock iBLD Claria® ER Index

The BlackRock iBLD Claria® ER Index is comprised of equity and fixed income baskets of exchange-traded funds and cash, and shifts weighting daily between them based on realized market volatility. The baskets provide broad diversification across global and domestic, small- and large-cap opportunities that are evaluated annually by BlackRock asset managers to take advantage of current market trends.

The BlackRock iBLD Claria® ER Index uses an excess return methodology by tracking the price on a synthetic future, which is accomplished by subtracting the prevailing short- term lending rate, as measured by the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), from the combined basket returns and accounting for dividends on the exchange-traded funds. The excess return structure is designed to create a level of stability in your participation rate (for the associated crediting method) from year to year by mitigating the impact of short-term interest rates on renewal rates.

S&P 500® Futures Daily Risk Control 5% Index

The S&P 500® Futures Daily Risk Control 5% Index is comprised of the S&P 500 Futures Index ER and the S&P 10-year Treasury Note Futures Index ER and is balanced daily to achieve target volatility.

Available with 2-year and 5-year MY point-to-point with a participation rate crediting methods (see description below).

Fixed Interest

A fixed interest allocation is also available. See current rates.

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 your interest credited, you cannot buy, directly participate in, or receive dividend payments from any of them through the contract.

Crediting methods

Crediting methods are simply mathematical formulas that determine how much indexed interest your annuity receives based on changes in an index during a given timeframe ("crediting period").

Monthly sum with a cap

This crediting method looks at the index value each month on the contract’s anniversary and compares it to the prior month’s value, then calculates the percentage of change. At the end of the year, the monthly index increases and decreases are added up. The monthly increases are subject to a cap. The monthly decreases are not subject to a cap. If the final sum is positive, the annuity receives that amount as indexed interest. A cap sets an upper limit on how much indexed interest is credited to your annuity at the end of each crediting period.

Annual point-to-point with a cap

This straightforward crediting method uses the index value from only two points in time, so it may be a good choice if you want to minimize the effects of midyear market volatility. A cap sets an upper limit on how much indexed interest is credited to your annuity at the end of each crediting period.

Annual point-to-point with a participation rate

This straightforward crediting method uses the index value from only two points in time, so it may be a good choice if you want to minimize the effects of midyear market volatility. A participation rate determines what percentage of the positive index change is credited to your annuity at the end of each crediting period.

MY (multi-year) point-to-point with a participation rate

Similar to annual point-to-point, but with a 2-year or 5-year crediting period. A participation rate determines what percentage of the positive index change is credited to your annuity at the end of each crediting period.

Withdrawal charge schedule

Start of contract year	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10

¹ The annual charge for the 360 Benefit rider is 0.95% of the contract’s accumulation value. After the first contract year, the annual Benefit rider charge can change, but it will never be greater than the maximum Benefit rider charge of 3%. Your client can cancel this rider at any time after the fifth contract year. Once the rider is canceled, it may not be reinstated. If the rider is canceled, your client will no longer receive interest bonuses from that point forward and will lose the ability to take lifetime withdrawals. Annuitization, however, is still available. If the rider is canceled, the only benefit of paying for the rider would be the interest bonuses that were credited up until the point the rider was canceled.

² Bonus annuities may include higher surrender charges, longer surrender periods, lower caps, or other restrictions that are not included in similar annuities that don’t offer a bonus. The bonus is credited each year the selected allocations earn interest. During the first 10 contract years, we will apply a surrender charge if the contract is partially or fully surrendered. These charges may result in a loss of indexed interest and fixed interest, interest bonus, and a partial loss of principal (premium).

³ Exercising an Index Lock may result in an interest credit higher or lower than if a lock had not been exercised.
