What’s an annuity?

Annuities are a contract you purchase from an insurance company. They allow you to convert a portion of your retirement savings into a guaranteed stream of retirement income. Many retirees’ goal is to maintain – or even enhance – the standard of living they’re used to in retirement, annuities may be a part of a strategy. There are many types of annuities—including fixed, income, variable, and registered index-linked annuities – each offering different benefits to your financial portfolio.
