Policy Review
Policies that were illustrated to stay in force “forever” often lapse with no value.
According to the Society of Actuaries, sales of Variable Universal Life spiked
from $2B in 1996 to $4B in 2000. An independent study conducted by LIMRA
International in 2005 showed that these same VUL policies have experienced a
sharp increase in lapse rates over the last several years.
In many instances, policy owners are forced to pay significant unplanned
premiums to keep their policies from lapsing.
Non-guaranteed projections (in-force ledgers) currently provided by insurance companies have a fatal flaw; the projections, which show desirable
performance at 8-12% average rate of return, do not account for negative fluctuations in market performance that can be devastating to a policy.
A vast number of misinformed insurance representatives believe that these policies will always perform as illustrated. As a component of our Second
Opinion Estate Planning™ we have the software and capabilities to properly analyze your policies - and the likelihood that those policies will remain in
force for the desired period of coverage. Contact us for a free, independent third party analysis of your current policy.
