Considering a 1035? Look at Symetra Accumulator IUL
With increasingly complex policy features and crediting rates, no one can accurately predict how an indexed universal life (IUL) product’s actual performance will compare to its illustrated performance. With that in mind, it’s important to consider how policy design and different performance scenarios can affect future distributions. That’s why Symetra Accumulator IUL, with its straightforward features and guarantees, merits serious consideration for 1035 exchanges.

The SECURE Act and IRAs from John Hancock
IRAs and qualified plans are designed to be retirement assets, not legacy assets. For many high-net-worth clients may end up not being needed to meet retirement income needs, and are thus are earmarked for heirs. Because these accounts were funded on a tax-deferred basis, they don’t receive a step-up in basis at the participant’s death, but rather distributions are taxable at the beneficiary’s tax rate. To help mitigate this tax bite, under prior law, clients would take advantage of special rules allowing these taxable distributions to be “stretched” over the lifetime of the beneficiary.
Under the new SECURE Act, plans must generally be distributed within 10 years of being inherited, essentially bringing the end to the stretch IRA concept. Now is the time to talk to your clients about this new law, especially those who do not need their retirement accounts to support their retirement.
