How to read the annuity column. For annuity contracts, coverage applies to the present value of future benefits, capped per owner per insurer and aggregated across all contracts with the same carrier. This is the operative figure when an installment obligation is funded by a commercial annuity.

California covers 80% of each category up to the stated cap (coinsurance applies to all lines).

North Carolina lists a $300,000 standard annuity limit but raises it to $1,000,000 for structured settlement annuities and $5,000,000 for certain unallocated/lottery annuities — a carve-out that generally does not reach commercial SIS annuities.

Oregon was not itemized in the source limits dataset; values shown reflect the standard NOLHGA model and should be confirmed against current Oregon statute before relying on them. Puerto Rico limits are shown; contact via NOLHGA.

Compiled from publicly available guaranty-association data current to May 2026. State laws change and several states restrict using guaranty coverage as a sales inducement. Verify any figure against the relevant state statute or NOLHGA before relying on it in a client engagement. Confirm-your-association lookup: nolhga.com.
