什么是指数型万能寿险(IUL),为什么它在最近如此受欢迎?

选择合适的人寿保险政策可能会让人感到这是一个重要的决定,尤其是在您试图平衡保护亲人和提高财务健康之间。人寿保险有多种类型,每种都有其独特的保障、成本和财务增长方式。指数型万能寿险(Indexed Universal Life,IUL)就是一种既提供保护又能随时间增长财务健康的选择。

近年来,越来越多的保险公司和银行为合适的客户提供IUL产品,但我们如何知道这种产品是否适合自己呢?让我们一起深入了解什么是IUL,并将其与其他类型的保险(如万能寿险、终身寿险和定期寿险)进行比较,看看每种保险如何在支持您的整体财务策略中发挥作用。希望通过这些内容,您能更好地理解IUL。

 

1. 指数型万能寿险(IUL):财务增长与保障并重

指数型万能寿险(Indexed Universal Life,IUL)是一种独特的终身寿险,结合了灵活的保费、死亡赔偿金以及基于股市指数(如标普500指数)表现的现金价值增长成分。这种保险提供了一种在为亲人提供安全保障的同时,帮助您构建财务健康的方法。

优点:
– 灵活的保费,适合您的预算:IUL允许您根据财务状况调整保费,灵活管理现金流而无需放弃保险保障。
– 增长潜力,无需直接投资风险:IUL保单的现金价值基于市场指数增长。当市场表现良好时,您的现金价值可能增长到一定的上限;当市场下跌时,保护机制可以防止损失,这意味着您的现金价值不会因为市场下跌而缩水。这种方式提供了一种无需直接投资股市就能积累财富的方法。
– 可调整的死亡赔偿金:您的保险覆盖可以根据需求变化进行调整。无论是需要更多保障还是减少保障,IUL都提供了支持您不断变化的财务目标的灵活性。

缺点:
– 复杂性和费用:上限、参与率和费用的细节使得IUL相比其他类型的保险更为复杂。
– 收益上限:尽管可以从市场上升中获利,但收益是有上限的,这意味着您能获得的收益存在限制。

IUL如何帮助财务健康:
IUL提供了一种在无需直接市场投资全部风险的情况下,通过潜在的更高收益来增长现金价值的方法。它可以作为您财务策略的多样化组成部分,融合安全性与增长潜力。

 

 2. 万能寿险(UL):灵活性与稳定性的平衡

万能寿险(Universal Life,UL)也是一种终身寿险,提供可调整的保费和死亡赔偿金。其现金价值以保险公司决定的利率增长,提供可预测、稳定的增长。

优点:
– 可调整的保费和死亡赔偿金:与IUL类似,您可以根据财务需求变化调整保费和死亡赔偿金,为保险管理提供灵活性。
– 可预测的现金价值增长:现金价值以设定的利率增长,为构建财务储备提供稳定可靠的方法。

缺点:
– 较低的增长潜力:虽然增长是可预测的,但通常低于IUL,尤其是在市场表现强劲的时候。
– 费用和成本:尽管增长稳定,费用和成本仍可能影响您的现金价值。

UL如何帮助财务健康:
如果您更喜欢一种稳健、可预测的方式来增加资金,同时保持人寿保险保障,UL提供了一种低风险的选择。它可以通过提供一个稳定的基础,来补充其他投资。

 

3. 终身寿险:保障有保证,但增长有限

终身寿险提供固定保费、保证的死亡赔偿金和保证的现金价值增长,是一种提供确定性的保险,但通常费用较高。

优点:
– 保证的死亡赔偿金:只要您保持支付保费,您的亲人将获得赔付。
– 保证的现金价值增长:现金价值按保证的比率增长,有些保单甚至支付红利,提供额外的增长。

缺点:
– 较高的保费:终身寿险的固定保费相对较高,可能会影响您的现金流。
– 增长潜力有限:虽然增长是有保证的,但与IUL或其他投资相比,增长较为温和。

终身寿险如何帮助财务健康:
如果您希望通过一种安全、保证的方式来增加现金价值,同时提供终身保护,终身寿险是一个不错的选择。它并不是为了最大化增长而设计,但提供了一个在更广泛财务计划中安全、可预测的元素。

 

4. 定期寿险:简单、实惠,但无现金价值

定期寿险是最简单、最实惠的选择,但它只在特定期限内提供保障,例如10年、20年或30年。

优点:
– 低成本:定期寿险是获得大量保障的最廉价方法,使其成为大多数人的可行选择。
– 简单:条款简单明了,包括特定期限的纯死亡保障。

缺点:
– 无现金价值:定期保单不累积现金价值,因此无法通过这种方式增长资金。
– 保障期满时终止:如果您活过了保险期,您的保障就结束了,续保费用可能会大幅增加。

定期寿险如何帮助财务健康:
定期寿险非常适合覆盖特定财务义务(如抵押贷款或子女教育),但不贡献于长期财务增长。它可以成为您整体财务策略中确保特定时期保障的宝贵、经济实惠的组成部分。

 

IUL(指数型万能寿险)与ILP(投资连结保单)相同吗?

指数型万能寿险(IUL)和投资连结保单(ILP)听起来相似,但它们在资金处理方式上有一些关键差异。IUL是一个人寿保险政策,同时建立现金价值,这种增长与某个特定的股票市场指数(如标普500)挂钩。好消息是,您的收益有上限,但同时也有保护底线,因此即使市场下跌,您的现金价值也不会低于某个水平。

另一方面,ILP允许您更直接地控制资金投资方向,可以从一系列基金中选择。这意味着您的回报可能更高,但也承担了全部风险——如果市场表现不佳,您的投资也会相应下滑。所以,如果您更倾向于具有增长潜力的稳定性,IUL可能更适合您;而如果您愿意承担更高风险以获得可能的更高回报,ILP可能更符合您的需求。

 

为什么IUL可能是您财务策略中的有价值组成部分

在人寿保险方面,它不仅仅是关于保护亲人,还涉及支持您的财务健康。以下是三个原因,说明为什么指数型万能寿险(IUL)可能是一个特别有用的工具:

1. 财务灵活性:可调保费和死亡赔偿金意味着您可以根据变化的财务状况调整保单,在需要时释放资金或在经济状况良好时增加投资。
2. 无需全额市场风险的增长机会:IUL提供了一个在市场中增长现金价值的机会,但无需承担下跌损失的风险。这提供了一种在安全和增长之间取得平衡的方法。
3. 未来资金来源:随着时间的推移,IUL保单的现金价值可以成为需要时可动用的财务资源,无论是用于紧急情况、教育费用还是退休。这可以作为其他储蓄或投资的备用方案。

 

最后思考:对财务健康的平衡方法

选择人寿保险是一项非常个人化的选择,找到合适的保单意味着要考虑它如何融入您的整体财务图景。尽管指数型万能寿险(IUL)不能替代其他投资,但它可以是一个强有力的补充。它提供了一种在保护中增长资金的方法,在潜在的市场收益与安全网之间取得平衡,尽量减少风险。

通过将IUL纳入您的财务策略,您不仅是在为生活中的不确定性提供保险,还在为实现长期目标创造一个稳定的财务增长路径。这一切都在于为您和您的未来找到合适的平衡。

当然,这封通讯的重点是IUL,因为这是为了回答最近追问该产品的关注者的问题,但请务必与财务顾问进行详细讨论,了解您的个人情况和投资组合是否适合IUL,或者更适合其他保险类型,从而量身定制最符合您需求的方案。

Personal Story:

I almost lost an arm and that was when I realised I had zero insurance.

Many years ago, I was living my life on the edge and very involved in many adventurous outdoor sports. All these came to a shocking realisation when almost lost my arm (or even my life), while kayak surfing with the high waves and deep waters overseas.

This lucky escape began my journey into the financial advisory business.

I wanted every person and family to know about the hard truth of being underinsured early and help everyone become better prepared. We run the risks of losing so much with every day we are not taking action to protect ourselves and our families financially.

Nobody has to deal with the same shock that I had experienced. You deserve better.

✅ I am a dedicated learner in the financial industry. I invested in my Masters in Wealth Management at SMU for this reason. I am still constantly upgrading myself year-on-year to become the best financial consultant for my diverse client profiles.
