Also referred to as a “UL” policy, a Universal Life Insurance plan is a flexible form of permanent life insurance. It allows you to protect your loved ones and build tax-deferred cash value by paying additional money to a life insurance premium to “overfund the policy.” That additional money builds cash value, along with interest, that may be borrowed from or used to subsidize your life insurance policy cost in the future. You may also temporarily decrease your payments or occasionally skip a payment, as long as you repay any money taken from your cash value.
Survivorship Universal Life Insurance - The death benefit is paid when the last person insured
under the policy dies.
