How is Instant Decision IUL Sold?
Traditional UL products may require complicated software with many different solves and variables to determine
the face amount and premium. NOT with Instant Decision IUL. Agent Tools will provide a simple premium quote
based on the predetermined insured and policy parameters. Instant Decision IUL is sold utilizing Americo’s easy-to-
use eApplication and instant decision process.

Ð The premium quote is the premium required to keep the desired face amount in force and the cash values
to endow at age 120. This is based on the maxiumum illustrated rate for the indexed interest account and all
assumptions are unchanged in the future.
Ð The Policyowners can allocate funds in either or both the S&P 500 Point-to-Point with Participation Rate or the
S&P 500 Point-to-Point with Cap.
Ð The Policyowner must review and sign a full policy illustration. This illustration, based on the premium quote
provided, is built into the eApplication so it is signed with the application at the point-of-sale, and a copy
delivered with policy print.

How Does Index Crediting Work?


Americo’s Instant Decision IUL uses the Point-to-Point method to determine the index rate. The indexed crediting
rate applied is the index rate multiplied by the declared Participation Rate or limited by a Cap.
The resulting percentage is the interest rate used to credit interest to the indexed account at the end of the year-long
crediting period. The Point-to-Point method utilizes an annual reset feature which means that yearly interest earnings
are locked in and subsequent index value are recalculated each year.

How to Calculate the Index Interest Rate


To determine the Index Rate, the annual Point-to-Point method compares the closing values of the S&P 500® Index
at the beginning and the end of each 1-year period [(ending value - beginning value)/beginning value]. The Net Index
Rate applied to the indexed account will be determined by adjusting the Index Rate by the current Participation Rate
or Cap.

The Participation Rate and Cap are declared in advance of each year-long index period and will be guaranteed for the
year-long index period. The Participation Rate is the percentage of the index rate that will be used in determining the
Net Index Rate. A Cap is the maximum Net Index Rate that may be applied to a indexed account.

Here is an example of how two different Index Crediting Options determine the Indexed Interest Rate.
Point-to-Point with Cap Point-to-Point with Participation Rate
Beginning Account Value $10,500 Beginning Account Value $10,500
Insurance Costs $500 Insurance Costs $500
Cap 12% Participation Rate 75%
Beginning Index Value 1,000 Beginning Index Value 1,000
Ending Index Value 1,200 Ending Index Value 1,200
Index Growth Rate 20% Indexed Growth Rate 20%
Indexed Interest Crediting Rate 12% Indexed Interest Crediting Rate (20%*75%): 15%
Ending Account Value $11,200 Ending Participation Account Value: $11,500

Assumes a beginning Participation Account value of $10,500. All examples shown are hypothetical and intended only for illustrative,
educational purposes.

Living
Benefits

If your client is diagnosed with an unexpected illness, lost income and medical expenses can take a toll on a
family budget. The Living Benefit Riders can help offer peace of mind at a critical time. These benefits may
give your clients access to an early (accelerated) payout of the policy death benefits if they are diagnosed with a
critical, chronic, or terminal illness.
Even better, these Living benefits are included at no additional cost to your client. Having access to this benefit
could make an important difference in the quality of life for them and the lives of their loved ones.

How Does it Work?


The requested benefit acceleration amounts will be reduced by an administrative charge and an actuarial
discount, based on the insured’s life expectancy at the time of the request. Calculated benefits may result in no
payment.

Benefit Calculation Example


A 40-year-old healthy male purchases an IUL policy. At age 43 he is diagnosed with cancer. He has to take time
off work for treatment. Expenses and medical bills begin to accumulate. After completing treatment, his medical
bills total over $75,000.
The IUL policy he purchased included the Living Benefit Riders at no additional cost. He requested in writing
the Accelerated Benefit for the full $100,000 face amount. His condition qualified him for the Critical Illness
Accelerated Death Benefit Rider and he received $79,206 based on a 3-year life expectancy.

3-Year Life 10-Year Life 15-Year Life

Requested Acceleration $100,000 $100,000 $100,000

less Administrative Charge $250 $250 $250
