Rate is locked & guaranteed for the full term — it cannot drop.
Free withdrawal each year: you may take out up to that year's credited interest (the growth) with no penalty.
Tax-deferred growth: interest compounds without current tax while it stays in the contract (in an IRA, growth is tax-deferred inside the account).
Laddering: splitting across 3/5/7-year terms staggers maturities for liquidity.
At the end of the term you can roll into a new annuity to keep deferring, or begin distributions.
