Sales of annuities were stellar in calendar 2019–except in 4Q, as WinkIntel and Secure Retirement Institute report. With interest rates ultra-low and investor anxiety high, 2020 sales could go either way.
Total fourth quarter sales for all deferred annuity sales were $53.3 billion, a decline of 3.3% from the previous quarter. Total 2019 deferred annuity sales were $221.8 billion, according to the 90th edition of Wink’s Sales & Market Report for 4th quarter, 2019.
