The Indexed Universal Life Series is designed first and foremost to provide life insurance protection. While the index crediting options are attractive for cash accumulation, the product should always be promoted to first meet the death benefit needs of families and businesses with cash accumulation as a secondary benefit.
Life insurance products contain fees, such as mortality and expense charges (which may increase over time), and may contain restrictions, such as surrender charges. One could lose money in these products.
Policy loans and withdrawals may create an adverse tax result in the event of a lapse or policy surrender, and will reduce both the surrender value and death benefit. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation within the first 15 years of the contract. Clients should consult their tax advisor when considering taking a policy loan or withdrawal.
Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.
Please keep in mind that the primary reason to purchase a life insurance product is the death benefit.
All indexed accounts available with the Indexed Universal Life Series employ a point-to-point crediting method with one-year index segments — except where noted — established monthly. Credits for any index segment may range from 0% up to the maximum for that segment. These policies guarantee that the total interest credited over the life of the policies will not be less than a 2% effective annual interest rate.
The underlying indices only recognize the changes in stock prices and do not include any dividend returns. While the policy and the Indexed Accounts do not actually participate in the stock market or the S&P 500® Index, and one cannot invest directly in an Index, the performance of the underlying index may exceed the offered indexed growth caps. Index crediting within these accounts will vary based on the movement of the investments within the underlying index. Should the index have 0% growth or decline, policy owners bear the risk that no Index credit will be given to the account.
