An IUL is a type of permanent life insurance that offers both a death benefit and a cash value component. The cash value can grow based on the performance of a market index, such as the S&P 500, while protecting your principal from market losses. It’s designed to give you both protection and growth potential in one solution.

An annuity is a financial product that can provide guaranteed income for a set period or for life. You make a lump-sum payment or a series of payments, and in return, the annuity company provides you with steady income—often used for retirement planning and income security.

IULs and annuities can be great for individuals looking to protect their wealth, grow their savings without market risk, and create a reliable source of income for the future. They’re also popular with people who want tax-advantaged growth and protection for their family.
