HB 0938 (Truly Agreed) | Modifies the requirements for annuity contracts |
SCS/HB 938 - This act amends the formula that may be used for determining the minimum present value of an annuity when it is terminated early. Current law requires these contracts to offer a minimum interest rate of 3%. The act removes this minimum and allows these contracts to offer a rate that is tied to the five-year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate, as reported by the Federal Reserve. The act permits sellers of annuities to continue to use the current formula until July 1, 2006.
This act is similar to SB 1188 (2004).
