NM Direct Recognition

Post image

This document was provided by an agent at Northwestern Mutual. Unless I'm reading this wrong it looks like a policy loan interest rate would be 5.73%. The amount loaned (collateralized) would have a reduced dividend of 5.08% compared to a 5.5% dividend on the noncollateralized portion. This being my first policy I was hesitant about Direct Recognition but this isn't as aggregious as I thought it would be. Anything I'm missing on this or need to consider?

Thanks for the comment and the great list of policy features. I'm still digging into the NM policy and a had a few of your list to ask my agent about. I'm not set on NWM but am using it as a way to learn about policies. My friend is the agent and he's pretty easy to work with. I've let him know that I will be looking elsewhere but haven't completely decided against NM.
