Frequently Asked Questions  |

For example, if I own three annuities worth $100,000 each and my insurance company fails, how much is protected?
The total protection per owner per member company is $100,000 for all annuity contracts. As a result, if an individual owned three $100,000 annuities with the same insolvent insurance company, the individual would have total guaranty association coverage of only $100,000. The value in excess of this statutory coverage limit would be eligible for submission as a creditor claim in the receivership, and the annuity holder may receive distributions as the company's assets are liquidated by the receiver. |
