From the NAIC Buyer’s GuideImmediate annuities begin payments soon after purchase; deferred annuities begin at a later date you choose. Most deferred annuities have an accumulation period and a payout period. The 2022 NAIC Buyer’s Guide for Deferred Annuities explains that an annuity is a contract with an insurance company. With an annuity, the insurer promises to pay income on a regular basis for a period you choose—including the rest of your life.

When you buy an indexed annuity, you are not investing directly in the market or the index. Source: NAIC Buyer’s Guide for Deferred Annuities (2022). The guide does not endorse any company or policy.
