    • Purpose of this paper
      • 1. This paper discusses the treatment of universal life contracts. 
    • What is universal life insurance?
      • 5. The American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI) defines universal life insurance (or adjustable life) as ‘A type of permanent life insurance1 that allows you, after your initial payment, to pay premiums at any time, in virtually any amount, subject to certain minimums and maximums.
      • This policy also permits you to reduce or increase the death benefit more easily than under a traditional whole life policy.
        • To increase your death benefit, the insurance company usually requires you to furnish satisfactory evidence of your continued good health.’2
      • 1 The ACLI defines permanent life insurance as ‘Life insurance designed to provide lifelong financial protection.
        • As long as you pay the necessary premiums, the death benefit will be paid.
        • Most permanent policies have a feature known as cash value that builds up, tax deferred, over the life of the policy and can be used to help fund financial goals, such as retirement or education expenses.’
