IUL is a type of permanent life insurance that does more than just provide a death benefit. It also includes a cash value component that can grow over time — based on the performance of a market index, like the S&P 500.Unlike traditional investments, your cash value won’t drop if the market does. You get the upside potential with a built-in safety net.
This kind of policy is a fit for people who want more than just life insurance — they want options
You want lifelong coverage, not just a short-term solution
You like the idea of building something over time
You want to leave something behind and use some of it while you’re living
You’re looking for tax advantages or flexibility down the line
It’s for people who think long-term — and want their insurance to do the same.
IUL gives you more than coverage — it gives you room to plan your future with less pressure. It’s a way to take care of the people you love while also building something you might be able touse during your lifetime. Whether you’re planning ahead, thinking about retirement, or just want more control over your financial future — this is one option that can grow with you.
It gives you lifelong coverage and builds a cash value over time. That value is tied to how a
market index performs (like the S&P 500), but you’re protected from losing money if the market dips.
Both offer permanent coverage, but they work differently. Whole life is more fixed and
predictable. IUL offers more flexibility and growth potential, especially in how your cash value grows.
That depends on your goals. IUL is for people who want more control and the chance for growth.
Whole life is for those who want steady guarantees. It’s about what fits your situation best.
With IUL, you can adjust how much you pay (within limits). You can put in more when you
have it, or scale back when needed — as long as there’s enough value to keep the policy active.
It grows based on market index performance — but without being directly invested. If the market
goes up, your value can grow. If it drops, you won’t lose what you’ve built.
You can borrow from it (tax-advantaged) to cover big expenses — like college tuition, home
repairs, or even to support your retirement. It’s your money to use when you need it.
Your beneficiaries will receive the death benefit — usually tax-free. Any remaining cash value
stays with the insurance company, unless you’ve structured your policy differently.
Yes — you can surrender the policy and take the cash value, but it will cancel your coverage. It’s
usually better to borrow from it if you need access.
Yes — you can take a loan from your policy’s cash value. You’ll pay it back with interest, but it
doesn’t require credit checks or bank approval.
No — IULs don’t pay dividends. That’s a feature of whole life insurance. Instead, IUL policies
grow through index-based interest.
If you want long-term coverage with flexibility and the option to build value over time, IUL is
worth considering. Talking with an advisor is the easiest way to see if it fits your goals.
