Dynamic Funds on insurance platforms
- Segregated Funds
- Universal life (UL) insurance
- Beneva
Segregated Funds are variable deferred annuity contracts with insurance protection in the event of death. It is the insurance contract that allows for many of the benefits of segregated funds, some of which are:
- Principal guarantees at maturity and death: Segregated funds offer guarantees at maturity or death on the limit of potential losses – normally 75% to 100% of original deposits, less any withdrawals.
- Market gains can be locked in and guaranteed (“Resets”): Many segregated funds provide options to “reset” market gains at a specified time – this reset will lock in all gains for a higher capital guarantee.
- By-pass probate: At death, proceeds of a segregated fund can pass directly to a named beneficiary, and are not subject to creditor’s claims, probate, lawyer’s or executor’s fees.
- Potential creditor protection: As long as a preferred beneficiary is designated, the potential for creditor protection exists during the policyholder’s lifetime, even if a bankruptcy occurs.
- Investment options similar to retail mutual funds.
Dynamic Funds has a number of investment options featured on third-party segregated fund platforms.

Universal Life insurance (UL) is a hybrid insurance product that combines the protection of permanent insurance with unique, tax-advantaged investment opportunities. This means any money paid over and above the annual cost of insurance would see a return based on the return of the associated Dynamic Fund.
Universal Life offers flexible death benefit and accumulation options and can be customized to suit long-term financial goals, and easily modified to meet changing needs. Some of the benefits of this type of policy are:
- Tax-advantaged growth to maximize capital: Interest growth earned on funds within a UL policy can grow tax-sheltered as long as the policy remains in force and the fund value remains in the policy without exceeding the legislated maximum.
- By-pass probate and tax-free payout at death: The proceeds from a UL policy can by-pass probate and will be paid, tax-free, directly to the named beneficiary.
- Creditor protection: UL policies may be protected from the claims of creditors of the policy owner
- Accessible cash values A UL policy offers the policy owner options for accessing the accumulated cash value tax-free.
- Wide range of investment options: Universal Life policies allow the insured to see a return based on a wide variety of investment options, including mutual funds.
