What is a Fixed Annuity?

Complete Insurance Service can give you information on the many different annuity products available in the Loganville area, including fixed annuities. Probably the most well-known type of annuity, fixed annuities is insurance contracts which are actually an investment. Your investment in a fixed annuity can be made in one lump sum or in scheduled payments. After they mature, fixed annuities offer you, as the owner of the annuity, a set amount of money back.

Fixed annuities are similar to certificates of deposit (CDs) and other investment vehicles used to accumulate wealth. However, fixed annuities have their own unique qualities that make them useful to certain types of investors. Fixed annuities are typically considered low-risk investments; however fixed annuities are not insured by the government or any other institution. Therefore, when you consider buying fixed annuities, it pays to make sure that the issuing insurance company is financially sound and highly rated.

Fixed annuities are good for those investors who want to have control of when they pay taxes on their annuity earnings. In other words, you don’t have to pay taxes on the wealth you accumulate from fixed annuities until you make a withdrawal. This means your fixed annuity can grow, tax-deferred, for years.

There are a few options for how you may withdraw your money from fixed annuities. You may elect a lump sum payment at the end of the fixed annuity term, or you may prefer the lifetime income option, which will give you a steady flow of income for the rest of your life. Some fixed annuities will allow you to withdraw a portion of your money, without penalties, before the annuity matures. Or, after your fixed annuity matures, you may elect to let your fixed annuity funds accumulate for a longer period of time.

An additional benefit of fixed annuities is that, after your death, your annuity’s value can be paid directly to your named beneficiary or beneficiaries without going through probate.

Finally, many of our clients in the Loganville area find fixed annuities very attractive because there is no limit to how much money you can invest in them. Conversely, there are limits to how much you are allowed to invest in a 401(k), IRA, etc.
