Principal IRA ExchangeSM

Principal IRA Exchange helps bring new life to your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) while protecting your legacy and securing the financial futures of your beneficiaries. This tax-efficient program provides you the opportunity to avoid the double taxation problems that IRAs could have - if left in an estate.

The Right Solution for the Right Person

Principal IRA Exchange is a unique solution for specific cases. You meet the profile of an ideal candidate if:

  • You are financially full. Your financial needs for the rest of your life can be met without using the IRA.
  • You are a good candidate for life insurance.
  • You want to transfer the maximum amount of wealth onto the next generation.
  • You want to reduce potentially high combined income and estate taxes on your existing IRA.
  • Your heirs are likely to be in a high income tax bracket.

Benefits You Receive

Principal IRA Exchange from Principal Life offers a complete turnkey package that helps meet your needs - and the needs of the next generation. We've made the process of buying life insurance quick, easy and convenient. Principal IRA Exchange provides you:

  • Our competitive Universal Life Protector II SM (UL Protector II) policy with lapse protection1 - allowing your beneficiaries to maximize the investment dollars you worked so hard to save.
  • Our competitive fixed period Income Annuity (SPIA)2 - available to finance the universal life premium.
  • Administrative convenience3 – Principal Life's unique administrative approach seamlessly withholds the tax on the fixed period income annuity and transfers the after-tax amount directly to fund the UL Protector II policy.
  • A simplified underwriting process - our TeleApp underwriting process guarantees that you will be underwritten in a fast, efficient and simple manner.

1 The lifetime lapse protection can be applied on a limited pay basis with outstanding underwriting.

2 Once annuity payments begin, they cannot be changed and you give up control of the principal in your account.

3 When both the UL policy and fixed period income annuity are purchased from Principal Life.
