  Equity Indexed Annuity is a Fixed Annuity now known as an Index Annuity

  • An equity index annuity is a fixed annuity.

    The reason equity indexed annuities are obsolete is that the
    fixed annuity means your premium earns a minimum guaranteed
    interest rate. In other words you have two interest rates,
    a guaranteed rate and a current rate determined by an
    external index.

    The word equity has been dropped from the description of a
    fixed indexed annuity as to eliminate the confusion of
    insurance terms among consumers and agents.

    A fixed index annuity is not an equity, therefore that term
    has been eliminated. Indexed annuities are the new and
    improved terminology. The word annuity is Latin for income.
    Annuities existed long before there was a tax code. The word
    deferred meant income later and still does today.

    You can buy a fixed index annuity and wait 12 months to
    determine if any interest has been credited and then
    withdraw the previous years interest over the second year
    all at once, semi-annually, monthly even direct deposit to
    your bank account.

    This is how to use a fixed index annuity with a current rate
    based on an index strategy you chose, to pay you a current
    income, in other words you can defer your income or interest
    payment for twelve months.

    The safety and security of fixed indexed annuities that
    provide current income is a popular choice for an IRA, 4O1k,
    and 4O3b rollover at retirement.
