A contract made with an insurance company is called an annuity. You can choose one of two ways to deposit your premium, a single payment or a series of them to the insurer. What you get in return is a fixed income amount every month, again you can choose to have your income start immediately or after some period agreed with the company. Usually, annuities may include a death benefit and will provide tax-deferred earnings growth.
In the case of a retirement annuity, you are able to make a lump-sum deposit right before you retire, when you might have received a large amount of cash from other retirement funds such as work benefits. This deposit is applied to the one-time funding of the retirement annuity. You usually begin to receive the payout after a few months. In this manner, you receive an immediate income upon retiring.
When planning for retirement, annuities are a good option. An annuity is built by paying a small amount every month to an insurance company. As the years go by this will grow into a healthy nest egg in your account. By choosing either a fixed of variable scheme, the money will earn interst or may be used to invest in a variety of equity markets or mutual funds.
The pay back from the insurance company starts when you retire. Depending on the scheme you had chosen, these payments may be for a fixed period, say 20 years, or they may continue for your lifetime. In a fixed annuity scheme, the payments are fixed, while in a variable scheme, the periodic payments will depend on how well your investments had performed.
An indexed annuity takes into account the changes in one of the well-known equity indexes. Returns vary based on the changes in the selected index. Usually there is a guaranteed minimum return. Equity-Indexed annuities give you the best of two worlds by combining the features of fixed-return traditional annuities and the equity market.
The SEC regulates variable annuities since these are treated in a manner similar to securities. By way of contrast, fixed annuities are not regulated by the SEC since these are not regarded as securities. Depending on the combination of insurance and securities features included in an indexed annuity, it can be regarded as a security. However, the SEC does not usually regulate indexed annuities.
