WHAT MOVES THESE RATES

Why the number changes — and what the "top" rate hides.

Annuity payouts are priced off long-term bond yields — chiefly the 10-year Treasury and corporate bonds the insurer buys to back your contract. When those yields rise, annuity rates rise; when they fall, so do payouts. That's why locking a rate is a bet on where yields go next.

The "top rate" in any table is the single best offer across many carriers — often from a lower-rated insurer. A highly-rated (A or better) carrier typically pays a bit less for the added safety. And every rate varies by state and by how much you deposit. Treat these as a starting point for shopping, never a quote.
