Indexed Universal Life

Flexible permanent life insurance with cash-value potential influenced by index-crediting methods and subject to policy charges, caps, floors and other contract terms.

Where it may fit

Start with the financial need.

  • Permanent protection with cash-value objectives
  • Clients able to fund and monitor a long-term policy
  • Situations where flexibility is valuable
Consider carefully

Know the tradeoffs.

  • Index performance is not the same as investing directly in an index
  • Policy charges, caps and crediting methods materially affect outcomes
  • Underfunding, withdrawals or loans can affect policy performance and lapse risk

How to think about this coverage

The right solution begins with the obligation you want to address, how long that need is expected to exist, and what premium can be maintained comfortably. Product availability and underwriting vary by carrier and state.
