Universal life insurance can provide lifetime coverage in the form of a death benefit to protect your family or business from financial loss if something were to happen to you, or you and your spouse. This insurance payout is typically federal income tax-free,1 transferred separately from the rest of the estate, and can be a good choice for transferring wealth.

The decision to purchase life insurance should be based on long-term financial goals and the need for a death benefit. Life insurance is not an appropriate vehicle for short-term savings or short-term investment strategies. Surrender charges apply for the first 19 years of the policy, which may decrease the policy surrender value substantially. While the policy allows for access to account values, you should know that there may be little to no account value available for loans and withdrawals in the early policy years. Taking withdrawals will decrease the no-lapse guarantee period. Borrowing from the policy may cause it to lapse.
