Annuities
Imagine knowing that your retirement
assets are positioned to take
advantage of potential market
upswings...and that you can protect
your future income from market
downturns. A variable annuity with
an optional living benefit,
available for an additional cost,
can provide that type of balance.1
Then envision being able to turn
your assets into regular retirement
income that’s guaranteed to continue
for life. Those are just two of the
ways Sun Life Financial annuities
can offer you a brighter outlook for
the future.
Note:
All guarantees are backed by the
claims-paying ability of the issuing
insurance company. Guarantees do not
apply to the performance or safety
of amounts held in the variable
subaccounts of a variable annuity.
1. Optional living benefits are
available at the time of
application, and have certain
limitations and restrictions for
premiums and investment allocations.
Variable annuities are long-term
investment vehicles designed for
retirement purposes and are subject
to market fluctuation, investment
risk, and possible loss of
principal. Past performance does not
guarantee future results.
If you are considering a variable
annuity, this information is
authorized for public use only when

prospectuses for the variable
annuity product and the underlying
investment options carefully before
investing or sending money.
All withdrawals of taxable amounts,
including earnings, are taxable as
ordinary income tax and, if taken
prior to age 59½, may be subject to
a 10% federal tax penalty.
Withdrawals will reduce the death

Explore
survivorship
life
If you’re
married,
your
family’s
assets will
pass to one
spouse
following
the death of
the
other—without
triggering
any estate
tax
consequences.
But on the
death of the
second
spouse, your
family could
be facing a
sizable
estate tax
burden that
is typically
due within
nine months
of the
second
spouse’s
death.
One
effective
way to
ensure more
money stays
in the
family—and
less is paid
out in
taxes— is to
buy a
survivorship
life
insurance
policy to
cover this
estate
estate tax
burden.
