A person who grants or administers an annuity.
From annuel (relating to annuity) + -er (suffix meaning 'one who does'). Archaic legal or financial term from when annuities were becoming formalized commercial instruments.
This word reflects the French legal traditions that deeply influenced English financial language—'annueler' sounds French and has barely survived, while 'annuity administrator' replaced it.
