The amount a person can borrow from their life insurance policy is typically limited by the policy's cash value, which is the savings component accumulated over time in permanent life insurance policies. Insurers usually allow policyholders to borrow up to a certain percentage of the cash value, often around 90%. Additionally, outstanding loans and interest can reduce the available borrowing amount, and borrowing too much can affect the death benefit and potentially lead to policy lapse if not managed properly.
