Variable Rescue Plan

When variable contracts have underperformed, clients have some options open. Variable contracts carry greater expenses than fixed contracts (average 150 basis points), therefore rates of return have to be consistently much higher than a fixed product. Also, the funds themselves carry additional internal charges.

The steps to evaluate the rescue plan are:
• Determine insurability.
• Determine proper insurance amount and objective (cash value maximization, death benefit).
• Reevaluate ownership and beneficiaries.
• Order in-force runs on existing policies at 8%, 6%, and 0% gross rates of return.
• Do “apples to apples” comparison to fixed product (Whole Life) matching future premium deposits and rollover cash value.
• Lower interest rate/dividend rate 100 basis points to determine fixed product volatility.
• If 1035 Exchange makes sense, file replacement forms and order medical exam and Attending Physician Statements.
