  • ING Introduces New Indexed Universal Life Insurance Products with Strong Growth Potential and Death Benefit Guarantee

    October 5, 2011 by N/A

    press release

    Oct. 4, 2011, 2:02 p.m. EDT

    MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — ING Life Companies (ING)
    introduced new no-lapse indexed universal life insurance products, ING Indexed
    Universal Life – Guaranteed Death Benefit, issued by Security Life of Denver
    Insurance Company (Denver, CO) and ING Indexed Universal Life – Guaranteed Death
    Benefit NY, issued by ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (Woodbury,
    NY). Both offer a guaranteed death benefit with the opportunity to earn an index
    credit linked, in part, to any increases in the S&P 500® (1) (subject to a
    maximum index credit rate cap) while also providing protection from downside
    risk through a minimum interest guarantee.

    With indexed universal life insurance, the guaranteed minimum interest rates
    feature provides downside protection for poor market performance while the
    indexed strategy offers an upside crediting potential if markets perform well.

    “Our new indexed life products can work well for clients who seek both strong
    growth potential to meet long-term financial needs as well as a death benefit
    guarantee,” said Daniel Mulheran, president of ING Life Distribution. “This
    product supercharges the potential for stronger long-term surrender values,
    giving clients financial flexibility to help meet future expenses such as
    college costs or retirement. The upside potential is paired with a death benefit
    guarantee, making these products a compelling solution for clients with a longer
    time horizon.”

    Features of ING’s new indexed universal life insurance products include:

    Up to a lifetime (age 121) death benefit guarantee

    Minimum death benefit of $50,000

    Fixed and Indexed crediting strategies

    Protection from downside risk through a minimum interest guarantee (2% for
    the Fixed Strategy and 1% for the Indexed Strategy)

    A one-year Point-to-Point S&P 500® Indexed Strategy with a 12% cap

    Surrender charge period of 14 years

    Select loans that may reduce out of pocket costs (not available in NY)

    A full range of riders, including accelerated benefit rider, additional
    insured rider, overloan lapse protection rider and waiver of specified premium
    rider.
