Variable annuity
If you want to choose from a broad range of investment options and are willing to accept greater market risk in exchange for a potentially greater rate of return, Modern Woodmen's Variable Annuity may be right for you. It is a flexible, tax-deferred investment vehicle that allows you to actively manage your investments and adapts to your changing needs over time. The value of a variable annuity is determined by the performance of the investment options selected. Performance is not guaranteed.
