Group Income Annuities
Terminal Funding or Transfer Pension Risk (SPGA)
Through a Single Premium Group Annuity, an employer can terminate their defined benefit plan, and transfer the responsibility for all future benefit payments to current and future retirees to Principal Life Insurance Company in exchange for a single upfront premium.
Key Advantage:
Pension plan risk and administrative burden is transferred to Principal Life. Based on available funding levels, all or a portion (i.e. retirees only) can be transferred.
