Discover how Term Series products can help provide smart protection with a specific purpose.
It’s estimated that a stay-at-home parent works 92 hours a week, on average. Find out how much they would earn if paid – and how much life insurance they need.
Since your clients can purchase term insurance in large amounts for a relatively low premium, it is well-suited for shorter-term protection goals, such as protection until a mortgage is paid off or children are through college. Proceeds can also be used for final expenses, replacing lost income or to help transition a business.
If their needs change and they need coverage for an extended period of time, your clients can convert the coverage to a permanent policy.
For level term, clients can convert:
For Annual Renewable Term (ART) clients can convert before the 5th policy anniversary but not beyond the insured's 70th birthday.
Our Term Series is basic life insurance for which your clients will pay level premiums for a specific period of time – 1, 10, 15 or 20 years – or they’ll pay premiums that are renewable and will increase each year as they get older. It pays a guaranteed death benefit to your clients’ beneficiaries that is generally income-tax-free, if they should die during that time period.
When clients exercise their conversion privilege, Equitable Financial will apply a credit toward the first premium on the new policy to reduce the initial out-of-pocket cost. This credit is guaranteed during the conversion period and can help make the transition to permanent insurance more affordable.
Clients who convert in the first 5 policy years receive a 125% conversion credit. This is a 25% increase from the normal term conversion credit that will continue to be credited to policies converted beyond policy year 5. Plus, clients have the option to apply to add our Long-Term Care Services sm Rider. 3
