Although the loan method of policy is convenient and efficient, not all policies can be used to pledge loans. Different insurance products have different ways to calculate their cash value, and the loan is only for the insured himself.
Among the insurance policies, only life insurance policies can be used as policy loans.
Life insurance contracts of savings nature, such as life insurance, investment dividend insurance and endowment insurance, have certain cash value as long as the premium paid by the insured exceeds 1 year.
No matter whether the insurer has an insurance accident or not, no matter whether the policy remains valid or not, the accumulated cash value will not be lost. The applicant can ask the insurance company to return the cash value at any time to realize the creditor's right.
How to determine the insurance loan amount
Under normal circumstances, the amount of the policy loan will not exceed 80% of the cash value of the policy, and the cash value of the policy is related to the specific types of insurance, the insurance premium paid and the insurance period. If the accumulated premium is more and the insurance period is longer, the amount of the policy loan will be higher.
The loan amount of the insurance policy is divided into the following situations:
1. Before all the premiums are paid, you can borrow 70%-80% of the paid premiums. ;
2. If all premiums are paid, the loan amount is 70%-80% of the insured amount of the current year (note: this insurance amount will increase with the policy loan, not the insurance amount at the time of initial insurance);
If the universal account has money, you can withdraw the money from this account at any time.
