What’s in it

AI summary Currently, certain rules protect the money people get back from deferred annuities. This change would stop those specific rules from applying to contingent deferred annuities. However, the commissioner of insurance can still create new rules to make sure these policyholders are treated fairly.1

Read the official explanation

This bill provides that subsections through of Code section 508.38 (standard nonforfeitures —— deferred annuities) shall not apply to contingent deferred annuities, except that the commissioner of insurance may prescribe by rule nonforfeiture benefits for contingent deferred annuities that the commissioner deems equitable to policyholders, appropriate for the risks insured, and consistent with the general intent of Code section 508.38.
