You can continue to offer guaranteed lifetime death benefit protection with market-driven growth potential, while also offering options that can reduce cost and increase your cash value and death benefit protection.

  • Two guaranteed lifetime death benefit options

  • NEW Bonus Rider for more growth opportunity

Product Highlights

Guaranteed Lifetime Protection – No Matter How the Market Performs

Two lifetime Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) protection options:

  • 100% Lifetime Guaranteed Death Benefit

  • NEW! Premium Reduction Option via Lifetime Guaranteed Death Benefit with 50% drop at age 90

    • For Lincoln VULONE (2021) this option reduces premium by 16% on average over the 100% Lifetime Guaranteed Death Benefit Option

  •  Tax-deferred growth potential

  • The freedom to craft policy portfolios from conservative to aggressive

  • Passive or hybrid management, without impacting the guaranteed protection

  • Automatic rebalancing

Options to Enhance Protection and Cash Value Potential

NEW! Bonus Rider

  • The Bonus Rider gives the policy holder the option to utilize cash value within the policy to pursue increased upside potential through indexed features. The rider takes an annualized charge from the Separate Account to purchase an uncapped option on the S&P 500 with a 0% floor and a participation rate (set at the time of option purchase). This rider includes an additional No-Lapse Value premium load.

Permanent Rewards for Strong Performance with the Accumulation Value Threshold

If the policy exceeds a pre-determined threshold, the policy’s Death Benefit is guaranteed, and excess cash value can be accessed without impacting the guarantee.

Product Updates

The first-year premium limit of $500,00 previously imposed on Lincoln VULONE (2019) and Lincoln SVULONE (2019) will not apply to Lincoln VULONE (2021) and Lincoln SVULONE (2021).
