Universal life

Spacesuits are made to protect astronauts from radiation, debris and harsh temperatures. At the same time, the fabric must be flexible enough to allow for precise movement.​

They’re sort of like universal life (UL) insurance, with its mix of protection and flexibility. UL policies also provide an engine for cash accumulation, a feature that hasn’t yet made its way to spacesuits.

Universal life: A different trajectory

In the galaxy of permanent life insurance, universal life and whole life might share a solar system, but they’re on different planets. Universal life insurance gives you:​

· More flexibility with your premiums, including how much and when you pay​

· Ability to adjust your death benefit amount for your beneficiaries as your needs change

Lower risk. Higher certainty.

​Current assumption universal life guarantees a minimum interest rate backed by the insurance company and a potentially higher credited rate to build cash value within your policy.​

You’ll have lower risk, and subsequently more conservative returns for your cash value, which may make sense for you.​

AuguStar Life’s V-Pro universal life insurance provides permanent protection for an affordable premium. It also can accumulate cash value that can be accessed for future use.
