How the value of this kind of plan works
How the value of this kind of plan works
Read this before any illustration. It describes these plans in general; the policy contract decides.
- Guaranteed part
- Guaranteed cash value is specified in the contract. Early values are usually low; non-guaranteed values may change.
- Non-guaranteed part
- Dividends and bonuses depend on the insurer’s results and can be cut. Fulfillment ratios show past payouts.
- Stopping early
- Early surrender usually returns less than premiums paid. The break-even year depends on the individual illustration.
- Currency
- Values are paid in the policy currency. If you spend in another currency, exchange rates can add to or erase the return.
