Non-Direct Recognition vs Direct Recognition: Which is Better for Policy Loans?

Non-Direct Recognition vs Direct Recognition: Which is Better for Policy Loans? When you take loans against a permanent life insurance policy, the way your insurance company calculates dividends becomes very important. Non-Direct Recognition: Pays dividends uniformly on the entire policy — even on the portion you’ve borrowed against. This is generally more predictable and favorable for borrowers. Direct Recognition: Adjusts dividends based on loaned vs unloaned portions. The company may reduce dividends on the loaned amount. For most people using life insurance as a personal banking system (Infinite Banking / Bank Like A Billionaire), Non-Direct Recognition is usually preferred because it provides more consistent dividend crediting and better overall predictability. In the book, I break down the key differences and why this matters for long-term wealth building.
