Surrender Charge

When a policyholder decides to terminate their life insurance policy or annuity and receive its cash value, they are charged a fee known as a surrender charge. This charge is meant to cover the administrative expenses incurred by the insurance company in setting up and maintaining the policy. The amount of the surrender charge varies depending on the terms of the policy and the length of time it has been in force. It is important for individuals to understand the implications of surrendering their policy and the potential impact of the surrender charge on the cash value they will receive.
