Looking for Better Real-World Value for Your IUL Clients?

A new Barclays Global MA indexed account now available on Accumulation IUL, Protection IUL and Protection Survivorship IUL

We are excited to announce the addition of a new managed volatility indexed account option — the Barclays Global MA Plus — offering a higher participation rate that can result in better real-world performance.

Our Barclays Global MA Plus Index gives John Hancock’s IUL policyholders the opportunity to realize the consistent, stable returns that can follow from being linked to components across multiple asset classes. Highlights include:

  • Optimized portfolio of a broad range of US and international assets — a well-diversified investment strategy that has a strong rational to more consistently deliver optimal performance for a given level of volatility
  • 7% volatility threshold — higher than typical competitor offerings, allowing a higher proportion of equity exposure and, in turn, back-tested performance
  • 25% minimum equity exposure — ensuring clients aren’t solely allocated to fixed income/cash in a period of high market volatility
  • Strong underlying index performance — Barclays Global MA Index YTD return of 7.06% (through 6/30)
