Why IUL?

Harness The Power of Compound Interest

IUL allows parents to leverage the potential power of compound growth over time within an insurance-based strategy. By starting at a young age, parents can maximize the ability for that money to grow over the years. Even modest monthly contributions may accumulate over time as the child reaches adulthood, depending on policy performance and funding.

Unique Tax Advantages

IUL for Kids may offer potential tax advantages that can support long-term cash value accumulation. The cash value grows on a tax-deferred basis, meaning your child won't pay taxes on the growth as their policy is funded through the years . When the time comes, that cash value can be strategically accessed through participating loans, which may allow access to cash value through policy loans, subject to policy terms and tax rules.

Locking In Lifetime Protection

One welcome side effect of setting up IUL as a savings vehicle is the life insurance protection it establishes for your child at a young age, establishing life insurance coverage early, subject to policy approval and ongoing premium requirements. Some IUL policies may include optional living benefit riders, subject to terms, conditions, and availability. which allow access to the life insurance portion of the plan if there is a serious illness or injury at any point in the insured's lifetime.
‍Terminal Illness: 1-2 years expected to live

‍Chronic Illness: Unable to perform 2 of 6 activities of daily living OR severe cognitive impairment

‍Critical Illness: Cancer, heart attack, stroke, major organ transplant, kidney failure

‍Critical Injury: Paralysis, coma, major burns, severe brain injury

Teaching Financial Responsibility

We believe in the importance of teaching financial responsibility from a young age. IUL for Kids can serve as an invaluable tool to help your child understand basic concepts of saving and responsible money management.
