A difference that can be seen between pension and annuity is in the payment amount. The pension is determined by the sum that one has earned during his service and adjusted for the duration of his career. Annuity is a scheme that is determined by the amount of investment made by a person towards the scheme.
What is an Annuity? An annuity is a financial product that straddles the fence between insurance and investment. With an annuity you exchange a sum of cash today â typically from your retirement nest egg right as you begin to retire â for consistent periodic payments in the future. How much that monthly payout is and how long it lasts depends greatly on the type of annuity purchased and lots of fine print.
