Prudential Universal Life Insurance Products

PruLife Founders Plus UL®

Designed to provide cost-effective death benefit protection that can be guaranteed to the insured's late 80s and beyond in many common premium paying scenarios. Its cash value growth potential is based on either an indexed crediting option, a fixed crediting option, or a combination of both.

Works well for:

  • An Alternative to Guaranteed Universal Life
  • Wealth Transfer
  • Income Protection
  • Buy/Sell Business Planning
  • Chronic or Terminal Illness Planning

Flexible premium, permanent life insurance with a focus on death benefit protection with the added flexibility of cash value accumulation potential and access.
Cash value is accessed through loans and withdrawals. Outstanding loans and withdrawals will reduce policy cash values and the death benefit and may have tax consequences.

Cash value accumulation potential with downside protection is based on a choice between two account options or a combination of both—the Fixed Account, and the Plus 100 Account:

  • The Fixed Account offers traditional fixed-interest crediting that is declared by Prudential with a compelling minimum rate.
  • The Plus 100 Account offers the opportunity to earn index interest based on the performance of the S&P 500 Index, excluding dividends (subject to a participation rate, a current cap, and a floor of 0%).

Adjustable No-Lapse Guarantee period up to lifetime.

Issue age based on your client’s age at their last birthday, NOT nearest.

Death Benefit Options: A (fixed), B (variable), and C (return of premium).
