Frequently Asked Questions

What is Indexed Universal Life (IUL) Insurance?

Indexed Universal Life (IUL) insurance is a type of permanent life insurance that provides both a death benefit and a cash value component. The cash value's growth is linked to a market index, such as the S&P 500, offering potential for higher returns while also providing a guaranteed minimum return to protect against market downturns.

How does IUL differ from other types of life insurance?

Unlike traditional universal life insurance, which offers a fixed interest rate, or variable universal life insurance, which allows investment in various securities, IUL offers the potential for higher returns through market indexes without directly investing in the market. This provides a unique blend of growth potential and downside protection.

What are the key benefits of IUL?

IUL policies provide several key benefits:
Death Benefit Protection: A tax-free payout to beneficiaries upon the insured’s passing.
Cash Value Accumulation: Opportunity for growth based on market index performance, accessible through loans or withdrawals.
Tax Advantages: Tax-deferred growth of cash value and potential for tax-free loans and withdrawals under certain conditions.

How can I access the cash value in my IUL policy? Is there a penalty for withdrawing funds from my IUL policy?

Policyholders can access the cash value through loans or withdrawals, which can be tax-free if managed properly. This makes IUL a flexible option for funding retirement, education expenses, or other financial needs.

Withdrawals may be tax-free up to the amount of premiums paid into the policy. Loans can also be taken against the policy’s cash value without tax implications, provided the policy is not surrendered or lapsed.

What interest crediting methods are used in IUL policies?

IUL policies may use various interest crediting methods, including:Point-to-Point: Measures the change in the index from one specific point in time to another.Monthly Sum: Adds up changes in the index each month over a year.Monthly Average: Averages the index values over the year and compares it to the beginning value.

Can I customize my IUL policy? What should I consider before purchasing an IUL policy?

Yes, IUL policies offer various customization options to fit individual needs:

Riders: Such as long-term care, critical illness, and others.

Adjustable Premiums and Death Benefits: To adapt to changing financial situations.

Before purchasing IUL, consider:

Financial Goals: Ensure the policy matches your long-term financial objectives.

Risk Tolerance: Understand the potential for variable returns.

Policy Costs: Be aware of fees and charges that may impact the policy's value.

How are funds within an IUL policy invested?

The funds in the cash value component of an IUL policy are not directly invested in the market. Instead, the insurance company uses financial instruments to mirror the performance of a specified index, while protecting your investment with a guaranteed minimum interest rate.

What happens if the market declines?

If the market declines, your IUL policy is protected by a guaranteed minimum interest rate, often set at 0% to 1%. This means that even if the market index performs poorly, the cash value of your policy will not experience a loss due to market declines during that term.
