Disclaimer: This calculator is for educational and illustrative purposes only. Results assume a fixed annual compound interest rate with no withdrawals during the term. CD comparison assumes annual taxation at a 22% federal rate on interest earned — your actual tax situation may differ. MYGA growth is tax-deferred but taxes are owed upon withdrawal.

What Is a MYGA?

The CD Alternative Most People Don't Know About

A Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity (MYGA) is a fixed annuity issued by an insurance company. You deposit a lump sum, lock in a guaranteed interest rate for a set term — typically 2 to 10 years — and your money compounds annually at that rate until maturity.

Unlike a bank CD, your interest grows tax-deferred — meaning you don't pay taxes on the growth each year. Every dollar that would have gone to taxes stays in your account, compounding. Over a 5 or 10-year term, that difference adds up to real money.

Your principal is fully protected. You cannot lose money due to market performance. At the end of the term, you receive your deposit plus all accumulated interest.
