When you buy a single
premium immediate annuity you buy a guaranteed lifetime income from an
insurance company. Vanguard
Annuity Access allows consumers to “compare the costs of annuity contracts
from different providers. Price quotes are provided in real time, but what
really sets Vanguard’s service apart from its competitors is that it discloses
its commissions upfront, something providers aren’t required to do.” Read all
about it by Tara Siegel Bernard at: http://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/09/28/vanguards-new-annuity-shopping-service/.
Vanguard offers an “online annuity marketplace where you can compare quotes on
comparable fixed annuities from a set of leading insurers. The program is
designed to facilitate easy, apples-to-apples comparisons among different
annuity contracts, with the highest degree of fee transparency possible.” http://vanguardblog.com/2010/09/24/annuities-for-retirement-income/#more-35
