ASOP 2 | §2.4 | NONGUARANTEED ELEMENT \(NGE\)

Any premium, charge, or benefit within an insurance policy that 1) affects policy costs or values, 2) is not guaranteed in the policy, and 3) can be changed at the discretion of the insurer. An NGE may provide a more favorable value to the policyholder than a guaranteed element. For the purpose of this ASOP, an NGE reflects expectations of future experience as opposed to, for example, a dividend, which reflects participation in past experience. Examples of premiums, charges, or benefits that can be changed at the discretion of the insurer may include credited interest, cost of insurance (COI) charges, bonuses, indeterminate premiums, index parameters used to determine credited interest, and expense charges.
