Premium financing has tax implications and you should consult your legal and tax advisors to help you understand the tax issues relevant to your situation. Loans and withdrawals may generate a tax liability, reduce cash value and the death benefit or cause the policy to lapse. Please refer to your policy for specific details. Premium financing is associated with certain risks including, but not limited to, interest rate risk, collateral requirements, loan renewal risk, and risk the lender could fail to make premium payments. In addition, if the policyholder fails to maintain the terms of the loan, the loan could default and the insurance contract could be discontinued. The net cost of a premium financing loan could be negative if the credits earned are greater than the interest charged. However, the net cost of the loan could be larger if the amount credited is less than the interest charged. Premium financing strategies require medical underwriting and financial underwriting. The applications for insurance and for premium financing are two separate transactions; and neither the premium financing lender nor the insurance company are obliged to offer life insurance coverage or a loan at any time. Policy loans from life insurance policies generally do not create income tax  liabilities if the contract is not considered a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC) under Section 7702A of the Internal Revenue Code. Loans or withdrawals taken from a MEC are taxable to the extent the cash value of the policy exceeds premiums paid in. Distributions may be subject to federal income tax and a 10% penalty tax if distributions are taken before age 59 1/2. Please consult a tax professional for personalized advice.
