AGILE comprises two key stages – the Growth Phase and the Lifetime Income Phase – which provides you with the confidence and flexibility to plan for, and thrive, in retirement.
Guaranteed lifetime income: commence your guaranteed lifetime income as soon as you’re ready1, with a choice of fixed or rising income payments.
Access Funds at Anytime: withdraw some or all of your remaining investment value when you need it.2
Protected growth: continue accumulating money for your retirement by selecting the protected Australian and/or global share index investment options.3
Lock-in income certainty: remove uncertainty by locking in a known lifetime income rate – with guaranteed annual increases every year you wait to start your income.
Death Benefit: the remaining investment value is paid out upon death.

Annuity payments
Any reference to a guaranteed annuity payment in connection with annuities issued by Challenger Life is a reference to the contractual obligations of Challenger Life under the terms of the applicable annuity to make those payments. Challenger Life’s obligations refer to, and are limited to, the annuities and payment guarantees provided by Challenger Life from its Statutory Fund No. 2. Challenger Life is a life company registered under the Life Insurance Act 1995 (Cth) and is regulated by APRA. The annuities Challenger Life issues are referrable to its Statutory Fund No. 2 (Statutory Fund) which it is required to maintain under the Life Insurance Act. The Statutory Fund generally contains a range of investments that may include bank bills, debt investments, convertible notes, shares, geared and ungeared property investments, infrastructure investments and other assets. The underlying investment objectives of the Statutory Fund include:
- achieving consistent returns from investments that ensure that the guaranteed rate of return offered to annuitants is earned; and
- matching the liability cash flows with cash flows receivable from the underlying assets.
Both the Statutory Fund and Challenger Life are subject to prudential supervision by APRA. APRA’s prudential standards on capital adequacy require Challenger Life to provide levels of support in relation to its annuity liabilities through capital adequacy standards. These capital adequacy standards are broadly designed to ensure that there are sufficient assets in the Statutory Fund to meet annuity liabilities even in adverse market conditions. Challenger Life generally maintains a surplus above its required statutory minimum.
