An IUL combines permanent life insurance protection with market-linked growth — and a floor that means you never lose money when markets drop. It's one of the most powerful tax-advantaged tools available.
An Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policy ties your cash value growth to a stock market index — like the S&P 500 — without directly investing in the market. When the index goes up, you earn interest. When it goes down, your floor protects you from losses.
Because growth accumulates tax-deferred and distributions can be taken as tax-free policy loans, IULs are increasingly used as a tax-free retirement income strategy — especially for high earners who have maxed out traditional accounts.
Professionals and executives who have maxed out 401(k)s and IRAs and want another tax-advantaged vehicle for retirement savings.
People who want market-linked growth potential but can't stomach the idea of losing principal in a down market.
Individuals building a 20—30 year plan for tax-free retirement income alongside a guaranteed death benefit for their family.
We help you structure the policy to maximize cash value accumulation while maintaining the life insurance component required for tax advantages.
Your premiums fund both the death benefit and a cash value account linked to an index. A cap sets your upside; a floor (typically 0%) eliminates downside.
In retirement, draw from your cash value as tax-free policy loans with no required minimum distributions — ever.
