Questions from Wichita
Is my principal protected in an FIA if the market falls sharply?
On eligible fixed index strategies with a contractual 0% floor, a negative index period typically credits 0% rather than reducing account value by the index loss. Surrender charges, fees, and rider costs still apply — review the specific contract.
