Credit Ratings

In August 2022, AM Best affirmed its financial strength rating for Oxford Life as A, reflecting the company’s recent annuity business growth. This scoring is the third highest out of AM Best’s 16 ratings.

Credit ratings are standardized evaluations of annuity providers’ financial stability. It’s important for consumers to research annuity and insurance companies’ credit ratings, as the companies should have proven soundness to cover and pay claims.

Annuity Products Offered by Oxford Life Insurance Company

Oxford Life issues fixed indexed annuities and multi-year guaranteed annuities. Annuity rates may vary depending on the product type, provider and location.

Fixed Indexed Annuities

Fixed indexed annuities are not directly exposed to the stock market, but they are tied to the performance of a specific stock index. If the index performs well, the annuity can grow. If the index experiences losses, the annuity has downside protection.

Oxford Life offers three fixed indexed annuity types:
Royal Select:
Immediate 8 percent accumulation value growth
Silver Select:
10 percent free withdrawal provision after first year
Select Series:
Choose a duration of three, five, seven or 10 years

Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuities (MYGAs)

Oxford Life also issues multi-year guaranteed annuities, or MYGAs, which provide a fixed interest rate throughout a chosen time span — such as five years.

One Oxford Life product line offers this type of predictable income:
  • Multi-Select: Choose a duration ranging from three to 10 years
