SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Dec. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — North American Company for Life and Health Insurance\u00ae<\/sup><\/a> (North American), a member company of Sammons\u00ae<\/sup> Financial Group<\/a> and one of the largest issuers of fixed index annuities (FIAs) in the U.S.,1<\/sup> and Annexus, a leading independent insurance retirement product design company, announce the addition of the NYSE\u00ae<\/sup> GEARS Index to the North American Secure HorizonSM<\/sup> FIA suite.<\/p>\n

The NYSE\u00ae<\/sup> GEARS Index (the \u201cIndex\u201d) is a growth-oriented index designed to identify the current global equity market environment and reallocate to capture equity performance through changing market conditions while using a proprietary risk management process to reduce volatility.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very pleased to collaborate with North American, Annexus, and ICE Data Indices to bring the NYSE\u00ae<\/sup> GEARS Index to the North American Secure Horizon suite of FIAs,\u201d said Anil Atluri, Head of the Institutional Client Group Americas at Deutsche Bank.<\/p>\n

The Index has been designed by Deutsche Bank AG – a pioneer in the Equity Risk Premia space, having been active in equity research since the early 2000s. It is administered, calculated and maintained by ICE Data Indices, LLC (IDI), an affiliate of the New York Stock Exchange within Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited for the opportunity to bring additional customization and flexibility to our agents and their clients,\u201d said Rob TeKolste, President of Sammons Independent Annuity Group. \u201cThis new Index, when paired with a Secure Horizon product, can help offer customers greater growth potential in an increasingly volatile market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom Haines, EVP of Capital Markets and Index Solutions at Annexus, added, \u201cThe addition of this Index enhances the diversification opportunities for agents and their clients with North American Secure Horizon FIAs. The Index is growth focused and has low correlation to the other indices in the portfolio, making it a complement to the other indices in the portfolio.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to expand our relationship with Annexus with the inclusion of the NYSE\u00ae<\/sup> GEARS Index in the Secure Horizon FIA suite and enter into a new collaboration with Deutsche Bank and North American,\u201d said Preston Peacock, Head of ICE Data Indices. \u201cThe NYSE\u00ae<\/sup> GEARS Index leverages the breadth of services we offer at ICE Data Indices across index construction, calculation and administration.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fixed index annuities are not a direct investment in the stock market. They are long-term insurance products with guarantees backed by the issuing company. They provide the potential for interest to be credited based in part on the performance of specific indices, without the risk of loss of premium due to market downturns or fluctuation. Although fixed index annuities guarantee no loss of premium due to market downturns, deductions from the accumulation value for optional benefit riders or strategy fees or charges associated with allocations to enhanced crediting methods could exceed interest credited to the accumulation value, which would result in loss of premium. They may not be appropriate for all clients. Interest credits to a fixed index annuity will not mirror the actual performance of the relevant index.<\/p>\n
