Indexed Universal Life (IUL) Insurance is a type of permanent life insurance that provides a death benefit while also offering the potential to accumulate cash value over time. The cash value growth is linked to the performance of a market index, allowing for growth opportunities without directly investing in the stock market.
The cash value in an IUL policy has the potential to grow based on the performance of a selected market index, subject to policy terms, caps, and participation rates. Growth is generally protected from direct market losses, making it an attractive option for individuals seeking both protection and long-term financial growth potential.
