PruLife Essential UL® is a flexible premium current assumption universal life insurance product that provides clients with a cost-effective death benefit, meaningful no-lapse guarantees, and the ability to accumulate cash value through fixed-interest crediting. In some common premium-payment scenarios, the no-lapse guarantee may go to age 90 or beyond. 

PruLife® Founders Plus Indexed UL (Founders Plus) is a flexible premium indexed universal life insurance product designed to give clients cost-effective death benefit protection and the potential for cash value accumulation through three interest-crediting options: the Fixed Account; the S&P 500® Indexed Account; and the Goldman Sachs Voyager Indexed Account. Clients may also choose to allocate to a combination of all three for a blended approach. Founders Plus also provides an extended No-Lapse Guarantee. In some common premium-payment scenarios, the No-Lapse Guarantee may go to age 90 or beyond.
