What is Defined Outcome Investing?

Defined outcome investing means you know your worst-case and best-case returns before you commit a dollar. Instead of exposing your savings to unknown market swings, a defined outcome product puts clear boundaries on your risk — your rate, your floor, or your monthly income is set on day one. Every product Annuital offers is a defined outcome product, built around three strategies:

LockIn

A guaranteed rate, locked

A multi-year guaranteed annuity (MYGA) sets your interest rate for the full term — your growth is known before you invest. Run the numbers →

IndexedUp

Market upside, with a floor

A fixed indexed annuity (FIA) credits a portion of S&P 500 gains with a 0% floor — you share in upside without ever losing principal. See the backtest →

Paycheck

Income you can't outlive

A single premium immediate annuity turns a lump sum into guaranteed monthly income for life — your paycheck is set before you commit. Estimate your income →

Defined outcome investing is the opposite of guessing. Whether you're a retiree in drawdown who can't afford a market crash, a saver who wants a higher guaranteed rate than a CD, or someone who needs income that lasts as long as you do — there's a defined outcome strategy built for it. All products are issued by AM Best B++ or better carriers and are 100% principal protected.

What does a $100,000 depositearn me today?

Today's top fixed annuity rate is 5.55% APY, from Nassau Life and Annuity Company (MYAnnuity 7X), guaranteed for 7 years — tax-deferred.

Tax-Equivalent Yield

Your 5.55% APY is worth 5.78% to a taxable investor

Only the gains in a fixed annuity get the yearly tax-deferral boost — you eventually pay tax on them at withdrawal. Over a 7-year term at a 22% federal + 5% state marginal rate, a fully taxable investment (taxed on interest each year) would need to yield 5.78% to match this annuity — a +0.23% edge from deferral.

Tax-Equivalent Yield

5.78%

Illustration only. Tax-equivalent yield compares the annuity's tax-deferred growth (tax paid once at withdrawal on the gains) to a fully taxable alternative taxed on interest each year, over the same 7-year term. Actual tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances — consult a qualified tax advisor. Withdrawals before age 59½ may incur IRS penalties.

Tax-Equivalent Yield of Fixed Annuities

A 5.55% tax-deferred annuity is not worth 7.6% to a taxable investor — that number uses the tax-free bond formula. Because you eventually pay tax on the gains, the true 7-year tax-equivalent yield is about 5.78% (a +0.23 point edge from deferral), stacking on top of annuities' already higher headline rates.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fixed Annuities

What is a fixed annuity?

A fixed annuity is a tax-deferred insurance contract that guarantees a fixed interest rate for a specific period, typically 3-10 years. Unlike CDs, your earnings grow tax-free until withdrawal.

Are fixed annuities better than CDs?

Fixed annuities often offer higher rates than CDs (5.55% vs 3-4%), plus tax-deferred growth. However, they have surrender periods. They're ideal for retirement savings you won't need immediately.

What is a MYGA?

A Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity (MYGA) is what fixed annuities are also referred to as. A MYGA locks in your interest rate for the entire term, similar to how a CD works but with tax-deferred growth and higher rates.

How safe are fixed annuities?

Fixed annuities are backed by the financial strength of A-rated insurance companies and protected by state guaranty associations. Your principal is 100% protected from market losses.

How much do I need to retire comfortably?

A common rule is to replace 70-80% of your pre-retirement income. For example, if you earn $100k/year, aim for $70-80k in retirement income from pensions, Social Security, and savings.

Can I withdraw money early from a fixed annuity?

Most fixed annuities allow 10% penalty-free withdrawals annually. Larger withdrawals during the surrender period incur surrender charges. Withdrawals before age 59½ may also have a 10% IRS penalty.

Should I roll my TSP into an annuity?

Many federal retirees roll a portion (not all) of their TSP into fixed annuities to get guaranteed rates of 5%+ vs the G Fund's 3-4%, while keeping flexibility with the remaining balance.

What states does Annuital serve?
