2 Other factors, such as a cap or spread rate, are available in some indexed interest strategies.
3 Net accumulated premium (total premium paid minus any policy loans, unpaid loan interest, and partial withdrawals) must equal or exceed the required premium amount at the start of policy year 16. The required premium is set at issue but may change if policy changes are made.
4 With Automated Income Monitor, selecting the dollar amount of withdrawals will influence their duration (how long they last). Likewise, selecting a duration will influence the amount of the withdrawal. Either way, we will provide you the details and send you an annual update to keep you informed. Taking income out of your policy will reduce its cash value and may increase the chance it will lapse. If you plan to rely on your policy for income, ask your financial professional about using the Overloan Lapse Protection Rider to help keep your policy from lapsing.
5 If you pay too much premium, your policy could become a modified endowment contract (MEC). Distributions from an MEC may be taxable.
6 Loans and withdrawals from the cash value may affect the death benefit and may require the need for additional premiums. If you choose to take loans or withdrawals, the cash value and the death benefit payable to your beneficiaries will be reduced.
If you surrender all or part of the policy, the surrender may be subject to income taxes and surrender charges may apply.
This material is not a recommendation to buy, sell, hold or roll over any asset, adopt an investment strategy, retain a specific investment manager or use a particular account type. It does not take into account the specific investment objectives, tax and financial condition or particular needs of any specific person. Investors should discuss their specific situation with their financial professional.
This policy allows for flexible premium payments, but it’s important to adequately fund it to keep it in force and to help meet your needs and those of your beneficiaries.
Indexed universal life insurance policies are not stock market investments, do not directly participate in any stock or equity investments, and do not receive dividends or participate in capital gains. Past index performance is no indication of future crediting rates. Also, be aware that interest crediting fluctuations can lead to the need to pay additional premium to meet your goals and/or prevent the policy from lapsing. Be sure to choose a product that meets long-term life insurance needs, especially if personal situations change – for example, marriage, birth of a child or job promotion. Weigh the costs of the policy and understand that life insurance has fees and charges that vary with sex, health, age and tobacco use. Riders that customize a policy to fit individual needs usually carry an additional charge.
All guarantees and benefits of the insurance policy are backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. They are not backed by the broker/dealer and/or insurance agency selling the policy, or by any of their affiliates, and none of them makes any representations or guarantees regarding the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. Nationwide and its representatives do not give legal or tax advice. An attorney or tax advisor should be consulted for answers to specific questions.
