Life Insurance Retirement Plans (LIRP)

A LIRP uses the power of Indexed Universal Life Insurance (IUL) to build a tax-free retirement income stream. Unlike a 401(k) or IRA, your money grows linked to market indexes with downside protection — and you receive it in retirement completely tax-free.

What Makes a Great LIRP

The best LIRP features include: high cash value accumulation, low internal costs, strong cap rates on indexes, flexible premium design, loan provisions for tax-free income, and long-term carrier financial strength (A+ rating preferred).

INDEX LOCKING PROVIDERS -- A Premium LIRP Featuree

Index Locking is a premium feature available in select IUL carriers that allows you to lock in your index gains mid-year rather than waiting until your policy anniversary. This means you capture market upswings and protect against downturns more precisely. Currently, only two carriers offer this feature: North American Company for Life and Health and Nationwide Life Insurance Company.

Available exclusively through North American Company and Nationwide Life.
