Frequently Asked Questions   Alabama Life & Disability Insurance Guaranty Association
 
For example, if I own three annuities and each has a cash surrender value of $100,000, and my insurance company fails, how much will ALDIGA pay if I want to cash surrender my annuities?
The total annuity cash surrender protection per owner per member company is $100,000. That per person limit is a maximum that applies without regard to the number of annuity contracts. As a result, if an individual owned three $100,000 annuities with the same insolvent insurance company, ALDIGA would pay a maximum total of $100,000 in cash surrender values. The value in excess of this statutory coverage limit can be submitted as a claim by you for $200,000 against the estate of the failed insurer. The receiver will furnish claim forms and set a bar date for filing during the course of the receiver's administration of the estate.
