About AnnuityJournal.org

AnnuityJournal.org is an independent financial media publication focused on helping Americans make informed decisions about annuities and retirement income. We cover fixed annuities, MYGAs, fixed index annuities, income riders, carrier ratings, and the broader retirement income landscape, without selling anything.

Our goal is simple: give retirement savers and their advisors the clearest, most useful information available so they can evaluate products on their own terms.

Editorial Standards

Every article on AnnuityJournal.org is written to be accurate, current, and free of carrier influence. We cite primary sources, AM Best ratings, SEC filings, state insurance department data, and carrier contracts, and we update content when rates, rules, or products change.

We do not accept payment from carriers to feature or favorably review their products. See our full Editorial Policy for details.
