Annuities refer to long-term investments issued by an insurance company. It is designed to provide protection to the insurance holder from the income outliving risks. Investors purchase or invest in annuities through lump-sum fees or monthly premiums to the insurance company, and it starts paying out instantly or at a certain period in the future. By annuitization of purchase payments, it is possible to convert your payments into specific periodic payments that last for a lifetime.
