Indexed Universal Life (IUL)

Protect your family and give your savings room to grow

An IUL is permanent life insurance with cash value that can earn interest based on a market index like the S&P 500, with a floor that protects your credited interest when the market drops.

Is it right for you?

IUL rewards people who plan ahead

A great fit if

  • You have steady income and want permanent coverage
  • You want long term, tax advantaged savings beyond your 401(k) or IRA
  • You like market linked growth but not market losses
  • You can commit to funding the policy for many years

Maybe not the best fit if

  • You need the most coverage for the lowest cost. Look at Term Life.
  • You want everything guaranteed with no moving parts. Look at Whole Life.
  • You may need the money back within a few years. Early surrender charges can apply.
How it works

Protection today, flexibility for later

Your premium pays for coverage, and the rest goes into cash value that earns interest tied to an index.

1

Index linked growth

When the index rises, your cash value is credited interest up to a cap set by the insurer.

2

Downside protection

When the index falls, your credited interest won't go below 0%. Policy charges still apply, so funding matters.

3

Flexible premiums

Within limits, you can adjust how much you put in as your life and income change.

4

Access your cash value

Use policy loans or withdrawals for retirement income, college, or emergencies, with potential tax advantages when structured properly.

Questions

Common questions

Is an IUL an investment?

No. It's life insurance. Your cash value is not invested in the stock market. Interest is credited based on an index, subject to caps and participation rates.

Can I lose money?

Your credited interest won't go below 0% because of index losses, but the cost of insurance and policy fees continue. If a policy is underfunded, cash value can decline and the policy can lapse.

How do I get money out?

Through policy loans and withdrawals. Done correctly, this can provide tax advantaged income. Loans accrue interest and reduce the death benefit.

Who is IUL best for?

Usually people in their 20s to 50s with steady income who want permanent coverage and long term savings, and who will fund the policy consistently.

Indexed universal life insurance is not a security or a direct investment in the stock market or any index. Index crediting is subject to caps, participation rates, and spreads set by the insurer, which may change. Policy charges reduce cash value. Illustrations are hypothetical and not guaranteed. Loans and withdrawals reduce cash value and death benefit, accrue interest, and may cause the policy to lapse, which can create a tax liability. Consult a tax advisor about your situation.
