Eight Types of Structured Annuity Settlements
A structured annuity settlement is a financial arrangement where a claimant receives compensation from a legal settlement or insurance payout, business sale or real estate sale in the form of periodic payments over time, rather than a single lump sum. There are vast tax advantages to mitigate both ordinary income tax and capital gains taxes by using such Structured Settlement Annuity Products.
These payments are typically funded through an annuity, a financial product purchased from an insurance company, which provides a stream of income at regular intervals (e.g., monthly, quarterly, or annually) for a specified period or the claimant’s lifetime.
