Understanding the Deception Behind IUL Policies

The deception surrounding IUL policies arises from the misconception that they are similar to whole life insurance but with market upside and no downside.

The zero floor of IUL policies is not a fixed dollar amount but a variable percentage impacted by factors like costs.

Selling IUL as an unbundled version of whole life is misleading and misrepresents the fundamental differences between the two products.
