Get answers to the most common questions about Index Universal Life Insurance.
IUL is permanent life insurance that builds cash value tied to a market index like the S&P 500. Unlike term (no cash value) or whole life (fixed growth), IUL offers market-linked growth, a guaranteed floor that protects against losses, and flexible premiums — all in one policy.
401(k)s and IRAs tax you on the way in or out. IUL offers three tax advantages in one: tax-deferred growth, a tax-free death benefit, and tax-free access to cash value through policy loans — with no contribution limits or required distributions.
Participation rates determine how much of the index's gain is credited to your policy. Cap rates set the maximum return (typically 8–12%). In exchange, a floor rate (0–1%) ensures you never lose money in a down market.
No. Your cash value isn't directly invested in the market. A guaranteed floor rate — typically 0–1% — protects your principal even when the market drops.
IUL policies include a cost of insurance, administrative fees, and optional rider charges — deducted from your cash value. Our free guide breaks down what to look for when evaluating a policy.
IUL works best for high-income earners who've maxed out their 401(k)/IRA, investors who want growth with downside protection, families building a tax-free legacy, and business owners needing flexible coverage solutions.
