Some structured settlement annuity issuing life insurers initially switched to daily rate pricing for all quotes in early March, to be more responsive to daily interest rate volatility. Investment grade corporate bond rates are generally stronger drivers of structure rates rather than Treasuries.

An annuity and a structured settlement walked into a bar, how do you tell them apart? 4structures' John Darer reviews the differences for you right here.
A lifetime structured settlement annuity turns part of your settlement recovery into guaranteed income you can’t outlive that is contractually guaranteed by a regulated life insurance company. A lifetime annuity is sometimes referred to as longevity insurance.
Structured settlement annuities can be very helpful to the budgeting process by providing guaranteed income streams and deferred lump sum payments tailored to specific budget needs and time frames identified in the settlement planning process.
Structured settlement receivables are often deceptfully marketed to investors as annuities. When the originating structured settlement factoring company buys structured settlement payments in a structured settlement factoring transaction, they are buying a receivable not an annuity.
Avoid constructive receipt if a structured settllement or structured attorney fee is to be established. Care must be taken to avoid constructive receipt.
