Annuities

Retirement income you can count on, month after month

If you've spent decades saving, the next question is how to turn savings into dependable income without exposing everything to market swings.

What an annuity actually is

An annuity is a contract with an insurance company. You place a sum of money with the carrier, and in exchange the carrier credits interest and can later pay you income — either for a set number of years or for the rest of your life.

Fixed annuities credit a stated interest rate and protect your principal from market losses. Fixed indexed annuities tie growth to a market index with a floor, so a down year doesn't reduce your principal, though gains are capped. Income annuities convert a lump sum into guaranteed monthly payments that can be structured to continue for a surviving spouse.

Annuities are long-term contracts. They come with surrender periods, and guarantees depend on the financial strength of the issuing carrier. They aren't right for money you may need next year — and we'll tell you that plainly rather than talk you into one.

Who it's for

  • You want income that doesn't stop if you live longer than expected
  • You'd like to protect a portion of your savings from market losses
  • You have CDs or savings earning less than you'd like

  • You're looking for tax-deferred growth on money you don't need right now
