AI Summary

This bill amends and adds to existing Idaho law to provide standards for annuity sales and advertising. It defines key terms like "guaranteed elements" and "nonguaranteed elements" related to annuity contracts. The bill requires insurers to provide specific disclosures to annuity applicants, including information on the contract's features, fees, and tax implications. It also mandates annual reports to contract owners on the status of their annuities. Additionally, the bill prohibits the advertising of interest-indexed annuities without prior approval from the state insurance director. Finally, it sets limits on annuity surrender charges, restricting them to a maximum of 10% in the first year and decreasing by 1% per year thereafter, and prohibiting charges that persist beyond 10 years.
