Cash value benefits of universal life insurance

Knowing you have options to access your policy’s cash value is important. With Bankers Life universal life insurance policies, money is always there when you need it.
Policy loans
The policy’s cash surrender value may be borrowed against at any time, allowing for peace of mind in the event of an emergency.
Preferred loans
After the 10th policy year, you are eligible to receive a preferred loan, calculated as a percentage of your policy’s cash surrender value on a zero-spread interest basis.¹ This means the amount of loan interest charged (3%) is exactly equal to the guaranteed minimum interest credited to the loaned portion of the account value.²
Partial withdrawals
After the first policy year, you may take one annual, free partial withdrawal of up to 10% of the total accumulation value with no surrender charges.³ If you withdraw more than 10% of the accumulation value, the charge applies to the amount that exceeds 10%. If you make more than one partial withdrawal in a policy year, the charge applies to the amount of second and later withdrawals.

¹ Withdrawals and loans will lower a policy's account value and death benefits, may have tax implications, and may cause the policy to terminate. Surrender charges will apply to withdrawals in early years, subject to a free partial withdrawal feature. Each individual should seek specific advice from their own tax or legal advisors.
² Indexed Universal Life Insurance (Clearvantage® IUL) has a 1% loan interest charge. TurningPoint Fixed Interest Universal Life (TurningPoint FIUL) has a 3% loan interest charge.
³ This policy also has surrender charges during the first 15 policy years.
