funding agreements

Money allocation deals

Funding agreements are contracts in which one party provides capital to another under specified terms for repayment or return.

In insurance, a funding agreement is a product where an insurer receives a lump sum and guarantees fixed payments over time—similar to an annuity but typically sold to institutional investors.

In government and nonprofit contexts, funding agreements establish conditions for grants or appropriations: The university signed a funding agreement with the federal agency.
