BE REPRODUCED OR SHOWN TO THE PUBLIC.
The Situation
Young parents each have an old whole life insurance policy
with ongoing premiums purchased when they were children
The death benefit is not enough to meet the current life
insurance needs of a parent with growing children

The Strategy
Use the cash value of the old policy to purchase a Colony
Term UL policy via 1035 exchange
With planned premiums that compete with term
insurance, the client should be able to purchase more
coverage with the exchange
The amount of the exchange, age and risk class of the
insured, will drive the amount of insurance and length of
the death-benefit guarantee1

1
The death-benefit guarantee can keep the policy in force even if there are no policy values. This guarantee is conditional and
depends on paying the planned premium as scheduled. In addition, certain UL policy rights like loans and withdrawals, if
exercised, can end the guarantee.
