First Investors Life Launches 'Variable Universal Life'

NEW YORK, NY, March 31, 2014 /CNW/ - First Investors Life Insurance Company ("FIL") is proud to introduce Variable Universal Life—a new flexible premium variable universal life product that offers individuals permanent life insurance protection and potential cash value all in one policy.¹

"We are very excited about this new life insurance product because it offers many appealing features and benefits," says Carol Springsteen, President of First Investors Life. "The policy is designed for individuals who need permanent life insurance, have a long-term time horizon and seek an investment component that offers the potential for tax-deferred cash value accumulation as part of a diversified financial strategy."

 "What's so attractive about this product," adds Springsteen, "is that individuals have greater control. For example, our Variable Universal Life policy offers death benefit options, flexible premium payments and potential cash value that clients can access through withdrawals or loans. In short, this Policy may be right for those who need permanent life insurance and are comfortable with investment risk."

¹All guarantees are subject to the financial strength and claims-paying ability of First Investors Life Insurance Company. First Investors Life makes no guarantees with respect to the investment return or principal value of the underlying subaccounts.

Any Policy loans or withdrawals you decide to take will reduce the death benefit and Accumulation Value of your Policy, whether or not you repay those loans. Moreover, a Policy loan may increase the risk of lapse by decreasing the Accumulation Value available to pay the monthly deduction.
