Advanced Life Deferred Annuity
An advanced life deferred annuity (ALDA) is the same as a longevity annuity or longevity insurance. This type of annuity is used to hedge longevity risk. In other words, an ALDA is used to protect someone from outliving their assets. The advanced life deferred annuity involves a single, lump sum premium payment at the onset of the contract period. The annuity payments are deferred or begin later in the contract owner's life. For example, a 65 year old person may buy an ALDA that begins providing annuity payments at age 80. The ALDA is a very efficient form of annuity and can very effectively provide protection against longevity risk.
