INFORMATION REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS 

Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company
	Guaranteed Accumulation Account Prospectus – December 15, 2014
Introduction
The Guaranteed Accumulation Account (“GAA”) is a fixed interest option available during the accumulation
phase of certain variable annuity contracts issued by Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company (the
“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”). Read this prospectus carefully before investing in GAA and save it for future
reference.
General Description
GAA offers investors the opportunity to earn specified guaranteed rates of interest for specified periods of time,
called guaranteed terms. We generally offer several guaranteed terms at any one time for those considering investing
in GAA. Each guaranteed term offers a guaranteed interest rate for investments that remain in GAA for the duration
of the specific guaranteed term. The guaranteed term establishes both the length of time for which we agree to credit
a guaranteed interest rate and how long your investment must remain in GAA in order to receive the guaranteed
interest rate.
We guarantee both principal and interest if, and only if, your investment remains invested for the full
guaranteed term. Charges related to the contract, such as a maintenance fee or early withdrawal charge, may still
apply even if you do not withdraw until the end of a guaranteed term. Investments taken out of GAA prior to the
end of a guaranteed term may be subject to a market value adjustment, which may result in an investment
gain or loss. See “Market Value Adjustment,” page 11.
This prospectus will explain:
·	Guaranteed interest rates and guaranteed terms;
·	Contributions to GAA;
·	Types of guaranteed terms available, and how they are classified;
·	How rates are offered;
·	How there can be an investment risk, and how we calculate gain or loss;
·	Contract charges that can affect your account value in GAA;
·	Taking investments out of GAA; and
·	How to reinvest or withdraw at maturity.
Additional Disclosure Information
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or
disapproved of these securities or passed on the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the
contrary is a criminal offense. We do not intend for this prospectus to be an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer
to buy these securities in any state or jurisdiction that does not permit their sale. We have not authorized anyone to
provide you with information that is different than that contained in this prospectus.

specific guaranteed interest rate if you deposit dollars for a specific
guaranteed term. For a particular guaranteed interest rate and guaranteed term
to apply to your account dollars, you must invest them during the deposit
period in which that rate and term are offered.
Guaranteed Terms. A guaranteed term is the period of time account dollars must be left in GAA in order to earn
the guaranteed interest rate specified for that guaranteed term. We may offer different guaranteed terms at different
times. Check with your representative or the Company to learn the details about the guaranteed term(s) currently
offered. We reserve the right to limit the number of guaranteed terms or the availability of certain guaranteed terms.
In addition, under certain contracts, we reserve the right to discontinue offering GAA, or to limit the availability of
GAA guaranteed term classifications.
Some annuity contracts that offer GAA distinguish between short- and long-term classifications of GAA. Under
those contracts, we make the following distinction:
·	Short-term classification—three years or less; and
·	Long-term classification—between three and ten years.
Guaranteed Interest Rates. We guarantee different interest rates, depending upon when account dollars are
invested in GAA. The interest rate we guarantee is an annual effective yield; that means that the rate reflects a full
year’s interest. We credit interest at a rate that will provide the guaranteed annual effective yield over one year. The
guaranteed interest rate(s) is guaranteed for that deposit period and for the length of the guaranteed term.
The guaranteed interest rates we offer will always meet or exceed the minimum interest rates agreed to in the
contract, if any. Not all contracts provide for minimum interest rates for the GAA. Apart from meeting the
contractual minimum interest rates, if any, we can in no way guarantee any aspect of future offerings.
Interest Rate Lock. Certain contracts may provide a 45 day interest rate lock in connection with external transfers
into GAA, which you must elect at the time you initiate the external transfer. Under this rate lock provision, if
applicable, we will deposit external transfers to the deposit period offering the greater of (a) and (b) where:
	(a)	Is the guaranteed interest rate for the deposit period in effect at the time we receive the rate lock
		election; and
	(b)	Is the guaranteed interest rate for the deposit period in effect at the time we receive an external transfer
		from your prior provider.
If applicable, this rate lock will be available to all external transfers received for 45 days from the date we receive a
rate lock election. In the event we receive an external transfer after this 45 day time period, it will be deposited to
the deposit period in effect at the time we receive the external transfer, and will earn the guaranteed interest rate for
that guaranteed term. Only one rate lock may be in effect at one time per contract – once a rate lock has been
elected, that rate lock will apply to all external transfers received during that 45 day period, and you may not elect to
begin a new rate lock period during that 45 day period.
PRO.GAA-14			3

Amounts subject to the rate lock will not be deposited until the external transfer has been received, and will not be
credited interest until deposited. This could result in the deposit being credited interest for a shorter term than if a
rate lock had not been elected. The cost of providing a rate lock may be a factor we consider when determining the
guaranteed interest rate for a deposit period, which impacts the guaranteed interest rate for all investors in that
guaranteed term.
Fees and Other Deductions. We do not make deductions from amounts in GAA to cover mortality and expense
risks. Rather, we consider these risks when determining the credited rate. The following other types of charges may
be deducted from amounts held in, withdrawn or transferred from GAA:
·	Market Value Adjustment (“MVA”). An MVA may be applied to amounts transferred or withdrawn prior to
	the end of a guaranteed term, which reflects changes in interest rates since the deposit period. The MVA may
	be positive or negative, and therefore may increase or decrease the amount withdrawn to satisfy a transfer or
	withdrawal request. See “Market Value Adjustment.”
·	Tax Penalties and/or Tax Withholding. Amounts withdrawn may be subject to withholding for federal income
	taxes, as well as a 10% penalty tax for amounts withdrawn prior to your having attained age 59½. See
	“Taxation”; see also the “Tax Considerations” section of the contract prospectus.
·	Early Withdrawal Charge. An early withdrawal charge, which is a deferred sales charge, may apply to amounts
	withdrawn from the contract, in order to reimburse us for some of the sales and administrative expenses
	associated with the contract. See “Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees” section of the contract prospectus.
·	Maintenance Fee. An annual maintenance fee of up to $50 may be deducted pro rata from all funding options
	including GAA. See “Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees” section of the contract prospectus.
·	Transfer Fees. Under some contracts transfer fees of up to $10 per transfer may be deducted from amounts held
	in or transferred from GAA during the accumulation phase. See “Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees”
	section of the contract prospectus.
·	Premium Taxes. We may deduct a charge for premium taxes of up to 4% from amounts in GAA. See
	“Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees” section of the contract prospectus.
·	Front End Sales Charges. Under some contracts, we may deduct front end sales charges of up to 6%. See
	“Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees” section of the contract prospectus.
Market Value Adjustment (“MVA”). If you withdraw or transfer all or part of your account value from GAA
before the guaranteed term is complete, an MVA may apply. The MVA reflects the change in the value of the
investment due to changes in interest rates since the date of deposit. The MVA may be positive or negative
depending upon interest rate activity at the time of withdrawal or transfer.
Any MVA applied to a withdrawal or transfer from GAA will be calculated as an “aggregate MVA,” which is
the sum of all MVAs applicable due to the withdrawal. See the sidebar on page 11 for an example of the calculation
of the aggregate MVA. The following withdrawals will be subject to an aggregate MVA only if it is positive:
·	Withdrawals due to the election of a lifetime income option; and
·	Withdrawals due to the death of the participant (if paid within the first six months following death). For certain
	contracts issued in the state of New York, this provision also applies in the event of disability, as defined in the
	contract.
All other withdrawals will be subject to an aggregate MVA, regardless of whether it is positive or negative,
including:
·	Withdrawals due to the election of a nonlifetime income option;
·	Payments due to the death of the participant, if paid more than six months following death (or disability, if
	applicable); and
·	Full or partial withdrawals during the accumulation phase (except for withdrawals at the end of a guaranteed
	term or pursuant to the maturity value transfer provision - see “Maturity of a Guaranteed Term” and
	“Maturity Value Transfer Provision”).
Under certain contracts that guarantee a death benefit equal to the greater of the “adjusted purchase total” or the
current account value (excluding loans), the calculation of the current account value will include the aggregate MVA
only if it is positive, regardless of whether the death benefit is paid within six months following death. See the
“Death Benefit” section of the contract prospectus. Under some of these contracts, an election to defer payment of
the death benefit will result in the application of the aggregate MVA, whether positive or negative, when the
beneficiary elects to begin distribution of the death benefit.
See “Description of the Guaranteed Accumulation Account” and “Market Value Adjustment.”
PRO.GAA-14		4

Maturity of a Guaranteed Term. On or before the end of a guaranteed term, the contract holder or you, if
applicable, may instruct us to:
·	Transfer the matured amount to one or more new guaranteed terms available under the current deposit period;
·	Transfer the matured amount to other available investment options; or
·	Withdraw the matured amount.
Amounts withdrawn may be subject to an early withdrawal charge, maintenance fee, tax withholding, and tax
penalties. See “Contract Charges”; see also the “Fees” and “Tax Considerations” sections of the contract
prospectus. When a guaranteed term ends, if we have not received instructions, we will automatically reinvest the
maturing investment into a guaranteed term available in the current deposit period. See “Maturity Value Transfer
Provision.” For contracts that distinguish between short- and long-term classifications, we will generally transfer
the maturing investment to the available deposit period for the guaranteed term having the shortest maturity within
the same classification. For other contracts, we will generally transfer the maturing investment in the following
manner based upon availability:
·	To a guaranteed term of the same duration, if available;
·	To a guaranteed term with the next shortest duration, if available; or
·	To a guaranteed term with the next longest duration.
If you do not provide instructions concerning the maturing amount on or before the end of a guaranteed term, and
this amount is automatically reinvested as noted above, the maturity value transfer provision will apply.
Maturity Value Transfer Provision. If we automatically transfer the matured investment into the current deposit
period, the contract holder or you, if applicable, may, for a limited time, transfer or withdraw all or a portion of the
matured investment that was transferred without the application of an MVA. As described in “Fees and Other
Deductions” above, other fees, including an early withdrawal charge and a maintenance fee, may be assessed on
amounts withdrawn. See “Description of the Guaranteed Accumulation Account.”
Transfer of Account Dollars. Generally, account dollars invested in GAA may be transferred among guaranteed
terms offered through GAA, and/or to other investment options offered through the contract. However:
·	Transfers may not be made during the deposit period in which your account dollars are invested in GAA or for
	90 days after the close of that deposit period; and
·	We may apply an MVA to transfers made before the end of a guaranteed term.
Transfers to other investment options offered through the contract may be subject to limits on frequent or disruptive
transfers or limits imposed by the underlying funds. See the “Transfers” and “Investment Options” sections of
your contract prospectus.
Investments. Guaranteed interest rates credited during any guaranteed term do not necessarily relate to investment
performance. Deposits received into GAA will generally be invested in federal, state and municipal obligations,
corporate bonds, preferred stocks, real estate mortgages, real estate, certain other fixed income investments, and
cash or cash equivalents. All of our general assets are available to meet guarantees under GAA.
Amounts allocated to GAA are held in a nonunitized separate account established by the Company under
Connecticut law. To the extent provided for in the contract, assets of the separate account are not chargeable with
liabilities arising out of any other business that we conduct. See “Investments.”
Notification of Maturity. We will notify the contract holder or you, if applicable, at least 18 calendar days prior to
the maturity of a guaranteed term. We will include information relating to the current deposit period’s guaranteed
interest rates and the available guaranteed terms. You may obtain information concerning available deposit periods,
guaranteed interest rates, and guaranteed terms five business days prior to the maturity date by calling
1-800-262-3862. See “Description of the Guaranteed Accumulation Account—General” and “Maturity of a
Guaranteed Term.”
PRO.GAA-14		5

Description of the Guaranteed Accumulation Account
General
GAA offers guaranteed interest rates for specific guaranteed terms. For a particular guaranteed interest rate and
guaranteed term to apply to your account dollars, you must invest them during the deposit period during which that
rate and term are offered. Each deposit period may offer more than one guaranteed term. Guaranteed terms may be
classified according to length of time to maturity, and each deposit period may offer various guaranteed terms within
these classifications.
Any MVA applied to a withdrawal or transfer from GAA will be calculated as an “aggregate MVA,” which is
the sum of all MVAs applicable due to the withdrawal. See the sidebar on page 11 for an example of the calculation
of the aggregate MVA. The following withdrawals will be subject to an aggregate MVA only if it is positive:
·	Withdrawals due to the election of a lifetime income option; and
·	Withdrawals due to the death of the participant (under certain contracts the withdrawal must be paid within the
	first six months following death). For certain contracts issued in the state of New York, this provision also
	applies in the event of disability, as defined in the contract.
All other withdrawals will be subject to an aggregate MVA, regardless of whether it is positive or negative,
including:
·	Withdrawals due to the election of a nonlifetime income option;
·	Payments due to the death of the participant, if paid more than six months following death (or disability, if
	applicable); and
·	Full or partial withdrawals during the accumulation phase (except for withdrawals at the end of a guaranteed
	term or pursuant to the maturity value transfer provision, see “Maturity of a Guaranteed Term” and
	“Maturity Value Transfer Provision”).
We maintain a toll-free telephone number for those wishing to obtain information concerning available deposit
periods, guaranteed interest rates, and guaranteed terms. The telephone number is 1-800-262-3862. At least 18
calendar days before a guaranteed term matures, we will notify the contract holder or you, if applicable, of the
upcoming deposit period dates and the current guaranteed interest rates, guaranteed terms and projected matured
guaranteed term values.
Contributions to GAA
The contract holder or you, if applicable, may invest in the guaranteed terms available in the current deposit period
by allocating new purchase payments to GAA or by transferring a sum from other funding options available under
the contract or from other guaranteed terms.
Though we may require a minimum payment(s) to a contract, we do not require a minimum investment for a
guaranteed term. Refer to the contract prospectus for any minimum payment(s) that may apply to a contract. We
reserve the right to establish a minimum amount for transfers from other funding options.
Investments may not be transferred from a guaranteed term during the deposit period in which the investment is
applied nor during the first 90 days after the close of the deposit period. This restriction does not apply to amounts
transferred or withdrawn under the maturity value transfer provision. See “Maturity Value Transfer Provision.”
Deposit Period
The deposit period is the period of time during which the contract holder or you, if applicable, may direct
investments to a particular guaranteed term(s) and receive a stipulated guaranteed interest rate(s). Each deposit
period may be a month, a calendar quarter, or any other period of time we specify.
PRO.GAA-14		6

Guaranteed Terms
A guaranteed term is the time we specify during which we credit the guaranteed interest rate. Generally, we will
offer at least one guaranteed term of three years or less and one guaranteed term of more than three years in any
deposit period. However, under certain contracts we reserve the right to limit the guaranteed terms or guaranteed
term classifications offered, as well as the right to discontinue offering GAA. We offer guaranteed terms at our
discretion for various periods ranging from one to ten years.
Guaranteed Term Classifications
Some contracts distinguish between long-term and short-term guaranteed term classifications. The following are the
guaranteed term classifications:
·	Short-term—All guaranteed terms of three years or less; and
·	Long-term—All guaranteed terms of between three and ten years.
During each deposit period, we may offer more than one guaranteed term within each guaranteed term classification.
The contract holder or you, if applicable, may allocate investments to guaranteed terms within one or both
guaranteed term classifications during a deposit period.
Guaranteed Interest Rates
Guaranteed interest rates are the rates that we guarantee will be credited on amounts applied during a deposit period
for a specific guaranteed term. Guaranteed interest rates are annual effective yields, reflecting a full year’s interest.
We credit interest at a rate that will provide the guaranteed annual effective yield over one year. Guaranteed interest
rates are credited according to the length of the guaranteed term as follows:
Guaranteed Terms of One Year or Less: The guaranteed interest rate is credited from the date of deposit to the
last day of the guaranteed term.
Guaranteed Terms of Greater than One Year: Except for certain contracts issued in the state of New York,
several different guaranteed interest rates may be applicable during a guaranteed term of more than one year. The
initial guaranteed interest rate is credited from the date of deposit to the end of a specified period within the
guaranteed term. We may credit several different guaranteed interest rates for subsequent specific periods of time
within the guaranteed term. For example, for a five-year guaranteed term we may guarantee 5% for the first year,
4.75% for the next two years, and 4.5% for the remaining two years.
We will not guarantee or credit a guaranteed interest rate below the minimum rate specified in the contract for GAA,
if any. Additionally, we will not credit interest at a rate above the guaranteed interest rate we announce prior to the
start of a deposit period. Not all contracts provide for minimum interest rates for GAA.
Our guaranteed interest rates are influenced by, but do not necessarily correspond to, interest rates available on fixed
income investments we may buy using deposits directed to GAA. See “Investments.” We consider other factors
when determining guaranteed interest rates including regulatory and tax requirements, sales commissions and
administrative expenses borne by the Company, general economic trends, competitive factors, and whether an
interest rate lock is being offered for that guaranteed term under certain contracts. We make the final
determination regarding guaranteed interest rates. We cannot predict the level of future guaranteed interest
rates.
Interest Rate Lock
Certain contracts may provide a 45 day interest rate lock in connection with external transfers into GAA, which you
must elect at the time you initiate the external transfer. Under this rate lock provision, if applicable, we will deposit
external transfers to the deposit period offering the greater of (a) and (b) where:
	(a)	Is the guaranteed interest rate for the deposit period in effect at the time we receive the rate lock
		election; and
	(b)	Is the guaranteed interest rate for the deposit period in effect at the time we receive an external transfer
		from your prior provider.
PRO.GAA-14			7

If applicable, this rate lock will be available to all external transfers received for 45 days from the date we receive a
rate lock election. In the event we receive an external transfer after this 45 day time period, it will be deposited to
the deposit period in effect at the time we receive the external transfer, and will earn the guaranteed interest rate for
that guaranteed term. Only one rate lock may be in effect at one time per contract – once a rate lock has been
elected, that rate lock will apply to all external transfers received during that 45 day period, and you may not elect to
begin a new rate lock period during that 45 day period.
Amounts subject to the rate lock will not be deposited until the external transfer has been received, and will not be
credited interest until deposited. This could result in the deposit being credited interest for a shorter term than if a
rate lock had not been elected. The cost of providing a rate lock may be a factor we consider when determining the
guaranteed interest rate for a deposit period, which impacts the guaranteed interest rate for all investors in that
guaranteed term.
Maturity of a Guaranteed Term
At least 18 calendar days prior to the maturity of a guaranteed term, we will notify the contract holder or you, if
applicable, of the upcoming deposit period, the projected value of the amount maturing at the end of the guaranteed
term, and the guaranteed interest rate(s) and guaranteed term(s) available for the current deposit period.
When a guaranteed term matures, the amounts in any maturing guaranteed term may be:
·	Transferred to one or more new guaranteed terms available under the current deposit period;
·	Transferred to other available investment options; or
·	Withdrawn from the contract.
We do not apply an MVA to amounts transferred or surrendered from a guaranteed term on the date the guaranteed
term matures. Amounts withdrawn, however, may be subject to an early withdrawal charge, a maintenance fee,
taxation, and tax penalties. If we have not received direction from the contract holder or you, if applicable, by the
maturity date of a guaranteed term, we will automatically transfer the matured value to one of the following:
·	For contracts distinguishing between short- and long-term classifications, we will generally transfer the amount
	maturing to the available deposit period for the guaranteed term having the shortest maturity within the same
	classification, though it may be different than the maturing term; or
·	For contracts that do not distinguish between short- and long-term classifications, we will generally transfer the
	maturing amount as follows:
	>	To a guaranteed term of the same duration, if available;
	>	To a guaranteed term with the next shortest duration, if available; or
	>	To a guaranteed term with the next longest duration.
The contract holder or you, if applicable, will receive a confirmation statement, plus information on the new
guaranteed interest rate(s) and guaranteed terms.

maintenance fee may apply to withdrawals. If the full amount reinvested is
transferred or withdrawn, we will include interest credited to the date of the transfer
or withdrawal. This provision is only available until the last business day of the
month following the maturity date of the prior guaranteed term. This provision only
applies to the first transfer or withdrawal request received from the contract holder
or you, if applicable, with respect to a particular matured guaranteed term value,
regardless of the amount involved in the transaction.
PRO.GAA-14			8

Transfers
We allow the contract holder or you, if applicable, to transfer all or a portion of your account value to GAA or to
other investment options under the contract. We do not allow transfers from any guaranteed term to any other
guaranteed term or investment option during the deposit period for that guaranteed term or for 90 days following the
close of that deposit period, except for amounts transferred under the maturity value transfer provision.
We do not apply an MVA to the value transferred upon maturity of a guaranteed term nor for values transferred
under the maturity value transfer provision. We do not count either of these types of transfers as one of the 12 free
transfers allowed per calendar year by those contracts allowing only 12 free transfers. Transfers to other investment
options through the contract may be subject to limits on frequent or disruptive transfers or limits imposed by the
underlying funds. See the “Transfers” and “Investment Options” sections of your contract prospectus.
When the contract holder or you, if applicable, requests the transfer of a specific dollar amount, we account for any
applicable MVA in determining the amount to be withdrawn from a guaranteed term(s) to fulfill the request.
Therefore, the amount we actually withdraw from the guaranteed term(s) may be more or less than the requested
dollar amount. See “Appendix I” for an example. For more information on transfers, see the contract prospectus.
Transfers from GAA
For contracts that do not distinguish between short- and long-term classifications, the contract holder or you, if
applicable, may choose the guaranteed term from which funds will first be withdrawn. If there is more than one
guaranteed term of the same duration, we will withdraw funds starting from the oldest guaranteed term that has not
reached maturity.
If we do not receive direction, we will withdraw funds pro rata from each guaranteed term in which you are
invested. If there is more than one guaranteed term of the same duration, we will withdraw funds starting from the
oldest guaranteed term that has not reached maturity.
For contracts that distinguish between short- and long-term classifications, the contract holder or you, if applicable,
may choose the guaranteed term classification from which funds will be first withdrawn. We will withdraw funds
starting from the oldest guaranteed term that has not reached maturity within the classification chosen.
If we do not receive direction, we will withdraw funds pro rata from the guaranteed term classifications, starting
with the oldest guaranteed term that has not reached maturity, and any other investment options.
We will apply an MVA to transfers made before the end of a guaranteed term. See “Market Value Adjustment.”
Transfers between Guaranteed Term Classifications
(For contracts that distinguish between short-term and long-term classifications only)
The contract holder or you, if applicable, may transfer amounts from short-term guaranteed terms to available long-
term guaranteed terms of the current deposit period, or from long-term guaranteed terms to available short-term
guaranteed terms of the current deposit period.
For example, funds may be transferred from a three-year guaranteed term (any time after 90 days from the close of
the deposit period applicable to that three-year guaranteed term) to the open deposit period of a seven-year
guaranteed term.
Funds will be first transferred from the oldest deposit period for which the guaranteed term has not reached
maturity and we will assess an MVA on the transferred amount. These transfers are counted toward the 12 free
transfers allowed per calendar year by those contracts allowing only 12 free transfers.
We do not permit the transfer of value from one guaranteed term prior to its maturity to another guaranteed term
within the same classification. For example, we do not permit transfers from one-year to three-year, one-year to
one-year, five-year to seven-year, or ten-year to seven-year guaranteed terms.

Withdrawals
The contract allows for full or partial withdrawals from GAA at any time during the accumulation phase. To make a
full or partial withdrawal, a request form (available from us) must be properly completed and submitted to our Home
Office (or other designated office as provided in the contract).
Partial withdrawals are made pro rata from funding options unless the contract holder or you, if applicable, request
otherwise. For contracts that do not distinguish between short- and long-term classifications, each guaranteed term is
considered a separate funding option for the purpose of a partial withdrawal.
The contract holder or you, if applicable, may choose the guaranteed term from which funds will be withdrawn. If
there is more than one guaranteed term of the same duration, we will withdraw funds starting from the oldest
guaranteed term that has not reached maturity. If no guaranteed term is elected, we will withdraw funds pro rata
from each guaranteed term in which you are invested.
For contracts distinguishing between short- and long-term classifications, each guaranteed term classification is
considered a separate funding option for the purpose of a partial withdrawal. The contract holder or you, if
applicable, may elect to take a partial withdrawal from either guaranteed term classification. We will first withdraw
funds from the oldest guaranteed term that has not reached maturity within the chosen classification. If no
guaranteed term classification is elected, we will withdraw funds pro rata from each classification (starting with the
oldest guaranteed term that has not reached maturity) and other funding options.
We may apply an MVA to withdrawals made prior to the end of a guaranteed term, except for withdrawals made
under the maturity value transfer provision. See “Market Value Adjustment.” We may deduct an early withdrawal
charge and a maintenance fee depending upon the terms of the contract. The early withdrawal charge is a deferred
sales charge that may be deducted upon withdrawal to reimburse us for some of the sales and administrative
expenses associated with the contract. A maintenance fee up to $50 may be deducted pro rata from each of the
funding options, including GAA. Refer to the contract prospectus for a description of these fees. When a request for
a partial withdrawal of a specific dollar amount is made, we will include the MVA in determining the amount to be
withdrawn from the guaranteed term(s) to fulfill the request. Therefore, the amount we actually take from the
guaranteed term(s) may be more or less than the dollar amount requested. See “Appendix I” for an example.
Deferral of Payments
Under certain emergency conditions, we may defer payment of a GAA withdrawal for up to six months. Refer to the
contract prospectus for more details.
Reinvestment Privilege
If allowed by the contract, the contract holder or you, if applicable, may elect to reinvest all or a portion of a full
withdrawal during the 30 days following such a withdrawal. We must receive amounts for reinvestment within 60
days of the withdrawal.
We will apply reinvested amounts to the current deposit period. This means that the guaranteed annual interest rate
and guaranteed terms available on the date of reinvestment will apply. Amounts are reinvested in the guaranteed
term classifications, where applicable, in the same proportion as prior to the full withdrawal. Any negative MVA we
applied to a withdrawal will not be refunded, and any taxes that were withheld may also not be refunded. Refer to
the contract prospectus for further details.

Should two or more guaranteed terms have the same guaranteed interest rate and mature on the same date, we
will calculate an MVA applicable to each.
Under some contracts, election of a systematic distribution option, as described in the contract prospectus, will not
result in an MVA being applied to amounts withdrawn from GAA.
Under certain contracts that guarantee a death benefit equal to the greater of the “adjusted purchase total” or the
current account value (excluding loans), the calculation of the current account value will include the aggregate MVA
only if it is positive, regardless of whether the death benefit is paid within six months following death. See the
“Death Benefit” section of the contract prospectus. Under some of these contracts, an election to defer payment of
the death benefit will result in the application of the aggregate MVA, whether positive or negative, when the
beneficiary elects to begin distribution of the death benefit.
Calculation of the MVA
There are two methods for calculating the MVA, and the method that applies to you will be set forth in your
contract. You should check your contract to see which method of calculating the MVA applies to you.
PRO.GAA-14		11

Method One. For contracts that use Method One to calculate the MVA, the amount of the MVA depends on the
relationship between:
·	The average corporate bond yield (US Treasury Rate plus spread over Treasury) of the month of deposit for the
	corresponding guaranteed term; and
·	The current corporate bond yield (US Treasury Rate plus spread over Treasury) at the time of withdrawal for a
	period equal to the remainder of the guaranteed term.
If the current corporate bond yield at the time of withdrawal is less than the average corporate bond yield of the
month of deposit, the MVA will decrease the amount withdrawn from a guaranteed term to satisfy a transfer or
withdrawal request (the MVA will be positive). If the current corporate bond yield at the time of withdrawal is
greater than the average corporate bond yield of the month of deposit, the MVA will increase the amount withdrawn
from a guaranteed term (the MVA will be negative).
Method Two. For contracts that do not use Method One to calculate the MVA, the amount of the MVA depends on
the relationship between:
·	The deposit period yield of U.S. Treasury Notes that will mature in the last quarter of the guaranteed term; and
·	The current yield of such U.S. Treasury Notes at the time of withdrawal.
If the current yield is less than the deposit period yield, the MVA will decrease the amount withdrawn from a
guaranteed term to satisfy a transfer or withdrawal request (the MVA will be positive). If the current yield is greater
than the deposit period yield, the MVA will increase the amount withdrawn from a guaranteed term (the MVA will
be negative).
	Deposit Period Yield. We determine the deposit period yield used in the MVA calculation by considering
interest rates prevailing during the deposit period of the guaranteed term from which the transfer or withdrawal will
be made. First, we identify the Treasury Notes that mature in the last three months of the guaranteed term. Then, we
determine their yield-to-maturity percentages for the last business day of each week in the deposit period. We then
average the resulting percentages to determine the deposit period yield. Treasury Note information may be found
each business day in publications such as the Wall Street Journal which publishes the yield-to-maturity percentages
for all Treasury Notes as of the preceding business day.
	Current Yield. We use the same Treasury Notes identified for the deposit period yield to determine the current
yield—Treasury Notes that mature in the last three months of the guaranteed term. However, we use the yield-to-
maturity percentages for the last business day of the week preceding the withdrawal and average those percentages
to get the current yield.
MVA Formulas
Method One. The mathematical formula used to determine the MVA using Method One is:

Where:
a is the average of the US Treasury Rate in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the
corresponding guaranteed term;
b is the US Treasury Rate in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the
remainder of the guaranteed term;
i is the average of the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a
similar service will be utilized) in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the corresponding
guaranteed term;
j is the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a similar service
will be utilized) in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the remainder
of the guaranteed term; and
x is the number of days remaining, (computed from Wednesday of the week of withdrawal) in the guaranteed term.
Note that the Company may change the weekdays noted above, subject to the terms of your contract.
PRO.GAA-14	12

Where:
i is the deposit period yield;
j is the current yield; and
x is the number of days remaining (computed from Wednesday of the week of withdrawal) in the guaranteed term.
For examples of how we calculate MVA, refer to Appendix I.
We make an adjustment in the formula of the MVA to reflect the period of time remaining in the guaranteed term
from the Wednesday of the week of a withdrawal.
Contract Charges
Certain charges may be deducted directly or indirectly from the funding options available under the contract,
including GAA.
The contract may have a maintenance fee of up to $50 that we will deduct, on an annual basis, pro rata from all
funding options including GAA. We may also deduct a maintenance fee upon full withdrawal of a contract.
The contract may have an early withdrawal charge that we will deduct, if applicable, upon a full or partial
withdrawal from the contract. If the withdrawal occurs prior to the maturity of a guaranteed term, both the early
withdrawal charge and an MVA may be assessed.
We do not deduct mortality and expense risk charges and other asset-based charges that may apply to variable
funding options from GAA. These charges are only applicable to the variable funding options.
We may deduct a charge for premium taxes of up to 4% from amounts in GAA, and, under some contracts, front end
sales charges of up to 6%.
Under certain contracts, we reserve the right to charge $10 for each transfer of accumulated value between available
investment options over 12 free transfers per calendar year.
Refer to the contract prospectus for further details on contract charges.
Other Topics
Anti-Money Laundering
In order to protect against the possible misuse of our products in money laundering or terrorist financing, we have
adopted an anti-money laundering program satisfying the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and other current
anti-money laundering laws. Among other things, this program requires us, our agents and customers to comply with
certain procedures and standards that will allow us to verify the identity of the sponsoring organization and that
contributions and loan repayments are not derived from improper sources.
Under our anti-money laundering program, we may require customers, and/or beneficiaries to provide sufficient
evidence of identification, and we reserve the right to verify any information provided to us by accessing
information databases maintained internally or by outside firms.
PRO.GAA-14	13

We may also refuse to accept certain forms of payments or loan repayments (traveler’s cheques, cashier's checks,
bank drafts, bank checks and treasurer's checks, for example) or restrict the amount of certain forms of payments or
loan repayments (money orders totaling more than $5,000, for example). In addition, we may require information as
to why a particular form of payment was used (third party checks, for example) and the source of the funds of such
payment in order to determine whether or not we will accept it. Use of an unacceptable form of payment may result
in us returning the payment to you.
Applicable laws designed to prevent terrorist financing and money laundering might, in certain
circumstances, require us to block certain transactions until authorization is received from the appropriate
regulator. We may also be required to provide additional information about you and your policy to
government regulators.
Our anti-money laundering program is subject to change without notice to take account of changes in applicable
laws or regulations and our ongoing assessment of our exposure to illegal activity.
The Company
Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” our”) is a stock life insurance
company organized under the insurance laws of the State of Connecticut in 1976. Through a merger, our operations
include the business of Aetna Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (formerly known as Participating Annuity
Life Insurance Company, an Arkansas life insurance company organized in 1954). Prior to January 1, 2002, the
Company was known as Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company. From January 1, 2002, until August 31, 2014,
the Company was known as ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company.
We are an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Voya Financial, Inc. (“VoyaTM ”), which until April 7, 2014, was
known as ING U.S., Inc. In May 2013 the common stock of Voya began trading on the NYSE under the symbol
"VOYA" and Voya completed its initial public offering of common stock.
Voya is an affiliate of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”), a global financial institution active in the fields of insurance,
banking and asset management. In 2009 ING announced the anticipated separation of its global banking and
insurance businesses, including the divestiture of Voya, which together with its subsidiaries, including the
Company, constitutes ING’s U.S.-based retirement, investment management and insurance operations. As of
November 18, 2014, ING’s ownership of Voya was approximately 19%. Under an agreement with the European
Commission, ING is required to divest itself of 100% of Voya by the end of 2016.
We are engaged in the business of issuing life insurance and annuities. Our principal executive offices are located at:
One Orange Way
Windsor, Connecticut 06095-4774
Income Phase
GAA may not be used as a funding option during the income phase. Amounts invested in guaranteed terms must be
transferred to one or more of the options available to fund income payments before income payments can begin.
An aggregate MVA, as previously described, may be applied to amounts transferred to fund income payments
before the end of a guaranteed term. Amounts used to fund lifetime income payments will only receive an aggregate
MVA to the extent it is positive; however amounts transferred to fund a nonlifetime income payment option may be
subject to either a positive or negative aggregate MVA.
Refer to the contract prospectus for a further discussion of the income phase.
PRO.GAA-14	14

Contract Loans
(403(b) and some 457 and 401(a) Plans Only)
The contract holder or you, if applicable, may not take a loan from amounts held in GAA, but we include amounts
invested in GAA when calculating the account value that determines the amount available for a loan. Amounts held
in GAA must be transferred to a funding option available for loans in order to be received as a loan. Refer to the
contract prospectus for more information on contract loans. We will apply an MVA to amounts transferred from
guaranteed terms due to a loan request.
Investments
Amounts applied to GAA will be deposited in a nonunitized separate account established under Connecticut law.
A nonunitized separate account is a separate account in which neither the contract holder nor you participate in the
performance of the assets through unit values or any other interest. Contract holders and participants allocating
funds to the nonunitized separate account do not receive a unit value of ownership of assets accounted for in this
separate account. The risk of investment gain or loss is borne entirely by the Company. All Company obligations
due to allocations to the nonunitized separate account are contractual guarantees of the Company and are accounted
for in the separate account. All of the general assets of the Company are available to meet our contractual
guarantees. To the extent provided for in the applicable contract, the assets of the nonunitized separate account are
not chargeable with liabilities resulting from any other business of the Company. Income, gains and losses of the
separate account are credited to or charged against the separate account without regard to other income, gains or
losses of the Company.
Types of Investments. We intend to invest primarily in investment-grade fixed income securities including:
·	Securities issued by the United States Government;
·	Issues of U.S. Government agencies or instrumentalities (these issues may or may not be guaranteed by the
	United States Government);
·	Debt securities that have an investment grade, at the time of purchase, within the four highest grades assigned
	by Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (Aaa, Aa, A or Baa), Standard & Poor’s Corporation (AAA, AA, A or
	BBB) or any other nationally recognized rating service;
·	Other debt instruments, including those issued or guaranteed by banks or bank holding companies, and of
	corporations, which although not rated by Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s, or other nationally recognized rating
	services, are deemed by the Company’s management to have an investment quality comparable to securities that
	may be purchased as stated above; or
·	Commercial paper, cash or cash equivalents, and other short-term investments having a maturity of less than
	one year that are considered by the Company’s management to have investment quality comparable to
	securities, which may be purchased as stated above.
We may invest in futures and options. We purchase financial futures, related options and options on securities solely
for non-speculative hedging purposes. Should securities prices be expected to decline, we may sell a futures contract
or purchase a put option on futures or securities to protect the value of securities held in or to be sold for the
nonunitized separate account. Similarly, if securities prices are expected to rise, we may purchase a futures contract
or a call option against anticipated positive cash flow or may purchase options on securities.
We are not obligated to invest the assets attributable to the contracts according to any particular strategy,
except as required by Connecticut and other state insurance laws. The guaranteed interest rates established
by the Company may not necessarily relate to the performance of the nonunitized separate account.

Appendix I 

Examples of Market Value Adjustment Calculations 

The following are examples of market value adjustment ("MVA”) calculations using several hypothetical 

yields, applicable to contracts that use Method One to calculate the MVA. These examples do not include the 

effect of any early withdrawal charge or other fees that may be assessed under the contract upon withdrawal. 

EXAMPLE I 

a is the average of the US Treasury Rate in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the 

corresponding guaranteed term; 

b is the US Treasury Rate in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the 

remainder of the guaranteed term; 

i is the average of the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a 

similar service will be utilized) in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the corresponding 

guaranteed term; 

j is the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a similar service 

will be utilized) in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the remainder 

of the guaranteed term; and 

x is the number of days remaining, (computed from Wednesday of the week of withdrawal) in the guaranteed term. 

Note that the Company may change the weekdays noted above, subject to the terms of your contract. 

EXAMPLE II 

a is the average of the US Treasury Rate in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the 

corresponding guaranteed term; 

b is the US Treasury Rate in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the 

remainder of the guaranteed term; 

i is the average of the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a 

similar service will be utilized) in effect on the first four Fridays of the month of deposit for the corresponding 

guaranteed term; 

j is the spread over Treasury on the Barclays US Corporate Investment Grade Index (if unavailable a similar service 

will be utilized) in effect on the withdrawal date (based on the previous Friday) for a period equal to the remainder 

of the guaranteed term; and 

x is the number of days remaining, (computed from Wednesday of the week of withdrawal) in the guaranteed term. 

Note that the Company may change the weekdays noted above, subject to the terms of your contract. 

The following are examples of market value adjustment ("MVA") calculations using several hypothetical 

deposit period yields and current yields, applicable to contracts that use Method Two to calculate the MVA. 

These examples do not include the effect of any early withdrawal charge or other fees that may be assessed under 

the contract upon withdrawal.

Appendix II
	Examples of Market Value Adjustment at Various Yields
The following hypothetical examples show the market value adjustment (“MVA”) at time of withdrawal for various
times remaining in the guaranteed term, based on:
·	Method One, which uses the current and average corporate bond yields (US Treasury Rate plus spread over
	Treasury) in the MVA calculations; and
·	Method Two, which uses the current and deposit period yields in the MVA calculations.
Table A illustrates the application of the MVA based on an average corporate bond yield or deposit period yield of
the month of deposit of 6%; Table B illustrates the application of the MVA based on an average corporate bond
yield or deposit period yield of the month of deposit of 5%. The MVA will have either a positive or negative
influence on the amount withdrawn from or remaining in a guaranteed term. Also, the amount of the MVA generally
decreases as the end of the guaranteed term approaches.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution 

Not Applicable 

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers 

Section 33-779 of the Connecticut General Statutes (“CGS”) provides that a corporation may 

provide indemnification of or advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent only as 

permitted by Sections 33-770 to 33-778, inclusive, of the CGS. Reference is hereby made to 

Section 33-771(e) of the CGS regarding indemnification of directors and Section 33-776(d) of 

CGS regarding indemnification of officers, employees and agents of Connecticut corporations. 

These statutes provide in general that Connecticut corporations incorporated prior to January 1, 

1997 shall, except to the extent that their certificate of incorporation expressly provides 

otherwise, indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents against “liability” (defined 

as the obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine, including an excise tax assessed 

with respect to an employee benefit plan, or reasonable expenses incurred with respect to a 

proceeding) when (1) a determination is made pursuant to Section 33-775 that the party seeking 

indemnification has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 33-771 or (2) a court has 

determined that indemnification is appropriate pursuant to Section 33-774. Under Section 33- 

775, the determination of and the authorization for indemnification are made (a) by two or more 

disinterested directors, as defined in Section 33-770(3); (b) by special legal counsel; (c) by the 

shareholders; or (d) in the case of indemnification of an officer, agent or employee of the 

corporation, by the general counsel of the corporation or such other officer(s) as the board of 

directors may specify. Also, Section 33-772 with Section 33-776 provide that a corporation shall 

indemnify an individual who was wholly successful on the merits or otherwise against 

reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding to which he was a party 

because he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation. Pursuant to 

Section 33-771(d), in the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation or with 

respect to conduct for which the director, officer, agent or employee was adjudged liable on the 

basis that he received a financial benefit to which he was not entitled, indemnification is limited 

to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding against the corporation to 

which the individual was named a party. 

A corporation may procure indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a 

director of the corporation. Consistent with the laws of the State of Connecticut, Voya Financial, 

Inc. maintains Professional Liability and fidelity bond insurance policies issued by an 

international insurer. The policies cover Voya Financial, Inc. and any company in which Voya 

Financial, Inc. has a controlling financial interest of 50% or more. The policies cover the funds 

and assets of the principal underwriter/depositor under the care, custody and control of Voya

Item 17. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows, pursuant to Item 512 of Regulation
S-K:
(a) Rule 415 offering:
(1)	Not Applicable
(2)	That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
	each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
	statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
	securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)	To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
	securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4)	Not Applicable
(5)(i)	Not Applicable
(5)(ii)	That for, the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to
	any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a
	registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements
	relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A
	shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the
	date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made
	in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or
	made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the
	registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as
	to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or
	modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that
	was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately
	prior to such date of first use.
(6)	That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities
	Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the
	undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the
	undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the
	underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are
	offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
	communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will
	be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
	(i)	Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant
		relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
	(ii)	Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf
		of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned
		registrant;

	(iii)	The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering
		containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its
		securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
	(iv)	Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the
		undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b)	Filings incorporating subsequent Exchange Act documents by reference:
	The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
	under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to
	section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
	applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d)
	of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration
	statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
	offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
	initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)	Not Applicable
(d)	Not Applicable
(e)	Not Applicable
(f)	Not Applicable
(g)	Not Applicable
(h)	Request for acceleration of effective date: Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
	under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
	persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
	has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
	indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
	unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
	than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
	controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
	proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
	the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
	matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
	jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
	expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(i)	Not Applicable
(j)	Not Applicable
(k)	Not Applicable
(l)	Not Applicable

Re: Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company
Prospectus Title: Guaranteed Accumulation Account
Registration Statement on Form S-3
File No.: 333-__________
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
As Counsel to Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company, a Connecticut life insurance company
(the “Company”), I have represented the Company in connection with the Guaranteed Accumulation
Account (the “Account”) available under certain variable annuity contracts and the S-3 Registration
Statement relating to such Account.
In connection with this opinion, I have reviewed the Registration Statement on Form S-3 relating to such
Account, including the prospectus, and relevant proceedings of the Board of Directors.
Based upon this review, and assuming the securities represented by the Company are issued in accordance
with the provisions of the prospectus, I am of the opinion that the securities, when sold, will have been
legally issued, and will constitute a legal and binding obligation of the Company.
I further consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ J. Neil McMurdie
