Cash-surrender value |
0.04 sec. |
|
Cash-surrender value The amount an insurance company will pay if the policyholder tenders or cashes in a whole life insurance policy. Cash-surrender value The amount of cash that becomes available to an insured person upon the cancellation of his/her insurance policy. Most often, this applies to the savings portion of a canceled whole life policy. This value is considered an asset and can be borrowed against or used as collateral. It may also be called a cash value or a surrender value. How to thank TFD for its existence?

| Life settlements (also known as high-worth transactions) provide a viable and attractive option: the company can sell the policy, be rid of any future premium obligation and receive a lump sum in cash well above the cash-surrender value. The IRS is allowing taxpayers to change the future tax exposure of the cash-surrender value in excess of premiums, if they terminate the split-dollar arrangement before 2004 or treat the premiums paid as a loan to the insured. A life insurance valuation determines the fair-market value of a life policy, while a life settlement gives policyowners the ability to access this value by selling their existing policies and receive a cash amount in excess of cash-surrender value. |
