Annuities and Guaranteed Investment Funds
Purpose
An annuity is an instrument that allows you convert your lump sum investment into a series of payments. This is useful for budgeting purposes as you know that there will be a next payment coming once the current is spent.
A Guaranteed Investment Fund or Segregated Fund is similar to a mutual fund in that it offers stock-market based returns, however, there are additional advantages including:
- A death benefit guarantee
- A principle guarantee on maturity
- Ability to designate a beneficiary and bypass probate
Types of Annuities and Guaranteed Investment Funds
- Term Certain Annuities – Allows you to convert a lump sum to a fixed series of cash payments
- Life Annuities – Allows you to convert a lump sum to a series of cash payments that are guaranteed to last for your entire lifetime (and optionally your spouse’s).
- Guaranteed Investment Funds – There are many permutations here that can be customized to your situation.
