But they also have surrender charges, usually from the first 9 years to 15 years of a policy. The cash surrender value accessible cash values after the charges have been levied against the account value. It can be punitive to surrender cash values and may have ordinary income tax ramifications.Answered on July 2, 2013+01+1 this answer

The surrender value is the money that the insurance company returns to you if you were to cancel or "surrender" the policy before it reaches it's expected end. Term life policies will have no surrender value, as they have no value unless they pay out. Whole life policies build a cash value, and it is from this that your returns come. The surrender value is nearly always less than the cash value, as the company will collect fees and charges from that value before releasing it to you. Your policy paperwork will usually list the surrender value. I hope that helps, thanks for asking!Answered on July 28, 2014flag this answer
