Securian Financial launches new IUL product focused on accumulation—without high fees and multipliers

The Indexed Universal Life Series is designed to provide life insurance protection. While the interest crediting options available with the product are attractive for cash value accumulation, the fundamental objective in buying this product should be the life insurance protection it provides to you and your family or business. One cannot invest in an index. 

Product features and availability may vary by state. Eclipse Accumulator and Eclipse Protector II are not available in the State of New York.

Insurance policy guarantees are subject to the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. 

Life insurance products contain fees, such as mortality and expense charges (which may increase over time), and may contain restrictions, such as surrender periods. Policyholders could lose money in these products. 

Policy loans and withdrawals may create an adverse tax result in the event of lapse or policy surrender, and will reduce both the surrender value and death benefit. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation within the first fifteen years of the contract. You should consult your tax advisor when considering taking a policy loan or withdrawal. 

Uncapped indexed account participation rates are subject to change and may be less than 100%. This could have the impact of the indexed account credit being less than the change in the reference index. 

A fixed interest rate loan will begin a 12-month lockout period during which no transfers from the fixed account to an indexed and/or balanced indexed accounts will apply. Not applicable to Securian Life indexed products in the State of New York. 

The short-term loan provision provides for interest waiver if the loan is paid in full within 90 days of the date the loan was taken. In the event you do not repay the loan in full within 90 days, interest and other policy loan provisions will apply as of the date the loan was taken. Additional restrictions may apply. 

Additional agreements may be available. Agreements may be subject to additional costs and restrictions. Agreements may not be available in all states or may exist under a different name in various states and may not be available in combination with other agreements. 

The Income Protection Flex Agreement provides for an irrevocable settlement for all or a portion of the policy death proceeds. The beneficiary of the policy will not be able to change the manner in which the death proceeds are paid out upon the death of the insured. 

The Income Protection Flex Agreement installment payment could be payable for a period up to 30 years. The installment payment and the interest rate used to calculate that payment will be shown in the policy illustration that you provide to clients either prior to or upon receipt of the policy. The income protection agreement interest rate used in the calculation of the installment payment is at least equal to the Settlement Option Guaranteed Interest Rate shown on the policy data pages. A portion of the benefit that is paid out in installments will be reportable as interest income. This taxable portion represents the amount of the benefit that exceeds the policy death proceeds. 

You should consult your tax advisor regarding your own tax situation.
