Lincoln Financial's Lincoln National Life Insurance Company unit will write the annuity.
Market Synergy — an annuity design firm based in Topeka, Kansas — designed the annuity, and Lincoln Financial will offer the annuity through independent marketing organizations (IMOs) affiliated with Market Synergy.
The crediting strategy menu includes a fixed account and four accounts that vary along with the performance of an investment index.
One of the options, the BlackRock iBLD Ascenda Index option, uses exchange-traded funds to tie investment returns to the performance of stocks around the world.
