What is Executive GVUL coverage?
  • Group Variable Universal Life is a unique group
    product that provides permanent life insurance
    with both a death benefit and an opportunity to
    accumulate cash value on a income tax-deferred
    basis with a fixed account and 16 investment
    options.

  • Variable Investment Options
  • Separate Account 16 mutual fund portfolios from
    nationally recognized investment managers
  • Fixed Account Currently 4 , Minimum guarantee

  • Free Look Period 10 days
  • Any guarantees are based on the claims-paying
    ability of the issuer.

Why Executive GVUL?
  • Need for more permanent life insurance protection
  • Estate planning
  • Economies of Group Life insurance
  • Tax-advantages
  • Interest in equity-based products
  • Easy access of cash value prior to retirement
    age, generally without penalty
  • Loans and withdrawals will reduce the death
    benefit. In addition, there may be a transaction
    charge assessed. The prospectus contains more
    detail. Please note, if your cash contribution
    exceeds certain limits and your GVUL coverage
    becomes a Modified Endowment Contract(MEC),
    different tax rules, and in some cases, penalties
    apply for lifetime distributions such as loans,
    withdrawals and assignments (including
    distributions made in the two years prior to
    becoming a MEC). A MEC can result from premium
    payments or from a reduction in coverage (such as
    the purchase of paid-up life insurance). If this
    applies to you, Prudential will notify you in
    writing of your status and advise you of your
    current options (if any) and by when you must
    respond. Prudential is not authorized to give
    tax advice. Please consult a tax advisor.
