Annuities
|
|
Used in retirement planning, annuity refers to any type of periodic (generally monthly) payments made to an individual (called the annuitant). The payments may be arranged to last for a defined period of time or may be paid until the annuitant's death. In the latter case, remaining funds may continue to a new annuitant or be paid in a lump sum to a beneficiary.
