A Purchased Life annuity is a basic annuity providing a guaranteed
regular income either for life or for a specified number of years. Note that
a Purchased Life annuity is not used as a compulsory purchase annuity.
Purchased Life annuities are generally used to obtain income from capital,
where you do not need to preserve capital for inheritance purposes.
Purchased Life annuities what is Capital Content?
A portion of the income from Purchased Life annuities is considered as
a return of the capital that you paid originally to the insurance company.
More importantly, this return of capital is not subject to taxation. The amount
of capital allocated to your annuity is dependent on your age at purchase
of the annuity.
