No. But most variable annuities and fixed deffered annuities are backed by the State Gurantee Association, which is a government agency similar to the fdic
No.
No. Each State covers annuities and life insurance. It's actually a lot better than the FDIC.
"No, I do not believe Vanquis Bank is backed by the FDIC. The FDIC is a United States corporation, whereas Vanquis Bank is banking institution that is located in the United Kingdom."
Money in a bank is FDIC insured. Money with an insurance company is actually safer than with a bank.
FDIC insurance covers all types of deposits received at an insured bank, including deposits in checking, NOW, and savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, and time deposits such as certificates of deposit (CDs). FDIC deposit insurance covers the balance of each depositor's account, dollar-for-dollar, up to the insurance limit, including principal and any accrued interest through the date of the insured bank's closing. The FDIC does not insure money invested in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, life insurance policies, annuities, or municipal securities, even if these investments were bought from an insured bank. The FDIC does not insure U.S. Treasury bills, bonds, or notes. These are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government.

They are not insured like with money in the bank and the FDIC. But it is safe as to the extent that the insurance company is safe and at this point probably safer than the banks and the FDIC! I strongly advise against indexed annuities at this point where you can receive 0% interest. Why not a fixed annuity that would guarantee the interest rate for a fixed period of time? Currently 6% guaranteed for 10 years.
All registered financial institutions are required to have some type of insurance for their customers. The FDIC / Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation underwrites banks and offers protection up to $250,000.00 per customer. The FDIC coverage does not include annuities, insurance policies, investments and mutual funds.
ARE ANNUNITIES BACK BY THE STATE GOVERNMENT OR SOME OTHER INSURSNCE COMPANIES. sjs
The FDIC was created during the financial chaos of the Great Depression. The stock market crash in October of 1929, and the subsequent crash in March of 1933, prompted the U.S. Government to create a federally-backed corporation that would provide stability and reassurance to the public. And on January 1, 1934, the FDIC was created. http://www.savewealth.com/banking/fdic/ Hopes it helps! ^^
