MYGA

MYGA (Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity) is a type of fixed annuity designed for secure, tax-deferred, long-term savings. Often called the insurance industry’s version of a Certificate of Deposit (CD), a MYGA allows you to lock in a specific interest rate for a set number of years, typically ranging from 2 to 10 years.

Who Should Buy a MYGA?

MYGAs are ideal for conservative investors, retirees, or people looking to park cash for 3–10 years while ensuring the principal is safe. They are often used to balance a portfolio by providing a safe, predictable return in retirement planning.
