What is an annuity and how does it work?
How an annuity works: You simply deposit a lump sum of money and receive a guaranteed income stream for life. This income can also be guaranteed for a specified period of time in case the annuitant or annuitants die pre-maturely.
A life annuity is the simplest investment income option. In exchange for a sum of money, an annuity from an insurance company provides you with a stream of income payments for life.
The income payments you receive from the annuity are made up of interest and principal and are determined based on:
Your age (for joint cases, your spouse's age)
Current interest rates
The length of time the payments are guaranteed
The amount of money used to purchase the annuity
Annuities can be purchased with registered funds such as the proceeds of a RRSP or RRIF or with non registered funds from your GIC or savings account.
