1 Funding a tax qualified retirement plan or arrangement with an annuity does not provide any additional tax benefits, however, doing so can provide you with additional insurance benefits and contract features beyond tax deferral. You may want to consider the relative features, benefits and costs of this annuity with any other investment that you may have in connection with your retirement plan or arrangement.

2 Amounts in variable investment options are subject to fluctuation in value and market risk, including loss of principal. You will incur higher costs with asset allocation portfolios than if you were to invest directly in the underlying portfolios. Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of AXA Equitable. Withdrawals or transfers from a Fixed Maturity Option may be subject to a market value adjustment, which may increase or decrease the account value.

3 Withdrawals and distributions of taxable amounts are subject to ordinary income tax and, if made prior to age 59½, may be subject to an additional 10% federal income tax penalty.

Variable Investment Options

Growth Potential

Our variable investment options offer the opportunity to direct how life insurance premium payments are invested among a wide array of stock, bond, international and money market investment options.

This access provides an opportunity for growth of your account value.  Please keep in mind that variable investment options are subject to fluctuations in value and market risk, including loss of principal.

Quality

Evaluating investment options has never been easy. And in today’s investment environment, where investors have literally thousands of choices, you need an experienced guide.

Through a multiple-step selection process, we systematically narrow the universe of money management firms to identify money managers that are best suited to meet specific investment goals.

Many of our money managers are household names you’re sure to recognize. Others are better known among large institutional investors.

Choice

Our variable investment option platform is designed to help meet the needs of a wide variety of investors, while being responsive to an ever-changing market environment. We offer a carefully selected menu of investment options that meets the needs of diversification-minded investors, while accommodating individual preferences and risk appetites.

Simplicity

For investors who want a simplified approach to building a diversified portfolio, a series of asset allocation portfolios are available. Each portfolio is constricted as a “funds-of-funds,” diversified by AXA Equitable’s team of investment specialists.  With one simple investment, you gain access to the combined performance of multiple portfolios. The Benefits of AXA Strategic Allocation Portfolios Managed by AXA Equitable 

• Tailored to Meet Your Goals — you can pursue your individual goals based on your personal risk tolerance
• Convenient — you get a well-diversified investment program in a single portfolio
• Professionally Managed — portfolios are rebalanced regularly by trained professionals to keep your investment on track

Please note that AXA Strategic Allocation Portfolios entail fees and costs in addition to the fees and costs incurred in the Portfolios' underlying investment earnings.

Access to other portfolio choices
To supplement our proprietary lineup of EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Trust portfolios, many AXA Equitable variable products offer additional choices of manager brands and investment styles.  These portfolios do not include the "EQ" or "AXA" brand.  While AXA Equitable has no direct authority over the management and operations of these portfolios, we provide input through an analysis and selection of each portfolio.  Ongoing portfolio performance is also routinely monitored by our team of dedicated fund professionals

Performance
As many investors have learned, a portfolio manager can suddenly leave a firm, or deviate from his or her investment style in pursuit of short-term returns. Many times these changes occur without the investors’ knowledge, which could alter the course of a disciplined investment strategy.

That’s why our seasoned team of investment professionals continuously “manages the managers” once they have been selected. This is a dynamic process that holds each money manager accountable and keeps them focused on delivering consistent, long-term results.

You should consider the charges, risks, expenses, and investment objectives carefully before investing.  Please click the link at the top of this page to download the product prospectus, which contains this and other information
