Record 2 2012-02-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pensions and Annuities
  • Insurance
DEF

A payment of money under a contract commencing at a predetermined time or event and made annually or at more frequent intervals, either during the continuance of a given life or a combination of lives, or for a specified number of years.

OBS

In federal government texts, the term "pension" is often used as a synonym for "annuity."

French

Domaine(s)
  • Pensions et rentes
  • Assurances
DEF

Somme payable périodiquement en contrepartie de l'aliénation d'un capital constitué par des cotisations de retraite ou des primes d'assurance.

OBS

Dans l'administration publique fédérale, on préfère utiliser le terme «pension».

OBS

«Annuité», dans le langage technique comme dans la langue courante, désigne une somme versée annuellement, destinée à constituer un capital ou à éteindre une dette. Il ne faut pas confondre ce terme avec «rente» qui est un revenu qu'on touche annuellement. L'emploi de «annuité» comme équivalent de «annuity» dans le sens anglais de versement périodique servi à une personne en échange d'un capital aliéné, est fautif.

Record 3 2010-12-14

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pensions and Annuities
DEF

A payment of a regular pension or similar benefit for a specified number of years or for the lifetime of the beneficiary or the beneficiary's spouse.

OBS

The term "pension" is ... applied rather than "annuity" to the regular payments made under public pension plans where no contract has been entered into for the payment of a specific amount of annuity. Although the terms "pension" and "annuity" have become almost synonymous, "annuity" should more properly be reserved for the technical processes involved, namely a series of equal payments made at equidistant intervals.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Pensions et rentes
DEF

Versement périodique d'une pension ou d'une prestation du même genre pendant un nombre prescrit d'années ou la durée de vie du bénéficiaire ou de son conjoint.

OBS

Au gouvernement fédéral, on emploie le terme «pension» plutôt que celui de «rente» pour désigner les versements périodiques effectués en application des régimes de retraite publics lorsqu'il n'y a pas eu de contrat prévoyant le versement d'une rente spécifique. Cependant le terme «rente» est l'expression consacrée par le gouvernement du Québec.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Pensiones y rentas
DEF

Monto de percepción periódica que sustituye los ingresos de una persona al momento de la jubilación o en casos de invalidez, incapacidad o defunción (en este caso para los beneficiarios).

Subject field(s)
  • Horse Husbandry
CONT

Boarding Options. Several types of service options can be offered, such as pasture, stall, or deluxe board. With pasture board, the horse is kept on pasture with a source of fresh water. Generally, you would also provide a shelter or protected area for the horse (this is required by law in many places). Additional feed is usually provided by the horse owner. With stall board, you would keep the horse in a stall and would clean the stall and feed the horse. Ideally, the horse would be put on pasture or in an exercise area every day. Deluxe board might include additional services, such as grooming, basic veterinary care, and exercising.
