Last week, I talked about the dramatic drop in the 10-year treasury rates and what that was doing to structured annuity rates You can see that as of today, we’ve now closed at 3.856%. Last week’s update, we were still just above 4%. You can see all the way from October 19th to today, December 20th, it’s been a dramatic drop.

The current rates I refer to in this video are available here as a PDF. Please note that this is an illustration only (based on actual rates at this time) and these rates are subject to change. Actual rates could be higher or lower and will be based on rates in effect on the date the structured settlement annuity premium is received.
