  Annuity, annual reset and cap in interest earned

  • Hello Friend, Here are a few excerpts from the
    Buyers Guide.

    Annual Reset

    Since the interest earned is "locked in" annually
    and the index value is "reset" at the end of each
    year, future decreases in the index will not
    affect the interest you have already earned. Therefore,
    your annuity using the annual reset method may credit
    more interest than annuities using other methods when
    the index fluctuates up and down often during the term.
    This design is more likely than others to give you
    access to index-linked interest before the term ends.

    Cap in Interest Earned

    While a cap limits the amount of interest you might
    earn each year, annuities with this feature may have
    other product features you want, such as annual
    interest crediting or the ability to take partial
    withdrawals. Also, annuities that have a cap may have
    a higher participation rate.
