Deferred annuities are life insurance products designed to support you during your retirement. Depending on your type of plan, they can offer you the ability to have a fixed income paid to you in the future, from a date you choose once you’re retired.

You can choose to receive deferred annuity payments for a set period (the term), for example over a 10-year period, or you can choose to receive payments for the rest of your life. You generally make this choice when you purchase the product, and it's important to note that the longer you receive payments, the lower the payments you receive are likely to be.

For some other deferred annuities, the plans started with a lump sum contribution (Eligible Termination Payments) and only accept Eligible Termination Payments and rollovers. By using an Eligible Termination Payment to purchase a deferred annuity, a policy owner defers paying lump-sum tax and receives accumulated benefits at concessional rates of tax.
