Group Variable Universal Life Insurance
Effective May 1, 2010 GM has revised the life insurance
coverage for all active salaried employees. The plan coverage has changed from
the MetLife Group Term Life Insurance to MetLife Group Variable Universal Life (GVUL)
Insurance.
With the GVUL Insurance, employees have the option to make after-tax
contributions to a tax-deferred investment account. These are contributions made
after any additional costs have been paid for purchased insurance in excess of
two times salary. Participants will have 19 investment options available in this
tax-deferred account.
Below are model portfolio recommendations for those employees who choose to make
investment contributions to the GVUL. Participants should consider their
timeframe in which they intend to utilize these funds as well as their personal
risk tolerance when determining an investment strategy for this account.
Should you elect to participate in the tax-deferred investment account, the
minimum contribution will be $25.00 per month and the contribution amount can be
updated at any time throughout the year.
Before making any investment decision on whether to contribute to your GVUL,
feel free to contact Mainstay Capital Management, toll-free at 1-866-444-6246 to
discuss the allocations below or your personal situation.
