Fixed Annuities

What is an Annuity?

An annuity is a long-term, tax-deferred vehicle designed for retirement. Earnings are taxable as ordinary income when distributed and may be subject to a 10% additional tax if withdrawn before age 59½.

Fixed Index Annuities are also referred to as Fixed Annuities with Index Linked Interest in the contract.

*Tax deferral offers no additional value if an annuity is used to fund a qualified plan, such as a 401(k) or IRA, and may be found at a lower cost in other investment products. It also may not be available if the annuity is owned by a legal entity such as a corporation or certain types of trusts.

Guarantees are backed by the claims-paying ability of Jackson National Life Insurance Company or Jackson National Life Insurance Company of New York.

The latest income date or Maturity Date allowed under an annuity contract is the owner’s age 95, which is the required age to annuitize or take a lump sum.
