Can you borrow money from a universal life insurance policy?

Most Life insurane companines allow you to borrow money from your Universal Life Policy. There will be an interest rate charged, the interest rate will be reflected in your policy under "Loans". You will only be able to borrow against the cash accumulation account. The amount in the account is usually the difference between the cost of insurance, plus expenses and the amount that you have been putting into the policy, plus any earned interest. The more money you pay into the policy above the cost of insurance and expenses, the more you should have in your cash accumulation account. Remember, you determine the amount of the premiums paid into the policy, the amount has to at least meet the minimum premium set by the life ins. company, and cannot exceed the top limit placed by IRS to maintain a life policy's tax benefits.

Can you borrow from your insurance policy?

Borrow - No. You cannot borrow directly from your insurance policy. But, you can borrow with your insurance policy as "collateral". Only certain types of insurance policies where there will be a guaranteed payout at maturity will be eligible for loans. Simple pure term policies that pay nothing if you outlive the policy period will not be eligible for these type of loans.

You can only collect the amount of your actual loss but no more than the limits on the policy. If a person does not have enough limits on his policy and he hit you then you can sue him for more but you will not be able to collect the policy limits amount then still sue for the remainder of the loss.
