Nationwide Insurance and Capital Group have created a target-date fund series that incorporates a fixed-indexed annuity with a guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit.
The funds, known as the NCIT American Funds Lifetime Income Builder Target Date Series, will be available as an investment option in defined-contribution plans.
The annuity portion of the product was invented by Annexus Retirement Solutions, Nationwide said in a release.
