Life Insurance

Written on November 9, 2009 – 10:55 pm | by Admin

Nothing is as unpredictable as life and for each of us to live comfortably in the world, we each have to work and earn a living and of course, as people get older, many want to start a family whom they will have to support with their income. In the unfortunate event of the death of a family breadwinner, on top of the grief that the family members will be suffering at that time, if the deceased person wasn’t life insured, then the family will face a huge financial burden as well.

Almost every day there are reports of untimely deaths for one reason or another and it could happen to anyone. One of the main concerns that people have about this, after the emotional trauma that would of course be suffered, is the sudden loss of financial income for the family.

In order for you to lead a life at ease and not constantly worrying about something untoward happening and you family suffering, there are companies that have many different life insurance policies and there is bound to be one to suit you. There are polices that last 15, 20 or even 50 years and there’s bound to be one to suit you.

Although it sounds like it would never happen, there have been many cases where a person has taken out a life insurance policy, paying large premiums with a promise of a huge sum to be paid to their family upon their death, and then the policy holder has been murdered by the beneficiary (the family member!) in order to claim the insurance money! So given that all insurance claims are not always legitimate, there must be a lot of careful research into whether or not genuine.

The death of the policy holder therefore calls for scrutiny and it is only when the insurance company is satisfied with the facts, that the money is paid. Go ahead and insure yourself as it could do you and your family a whole lot of good.

Term 10 or Term 20 Life Insurance? Not Sure which is Best, La Capitale May have the Answer

Written on November 9, 2009 – 3:14 pm | by Admin

Term 10 life insurance is generally the most popular form of life insurance in Canada. It provides low initial premiums, but the cost can rise substantially as the insured gets older. For example, RBC’s $500,000 Term 10 insurance for a 35-year-old, male non-smoker with premiums starting at $26.37/month. However, at the end of the 10th year, the renewal premium becomes $146.70/month.

The reason life insurance companies use a buffer is to cover for any health changes over those ten years, thus charging a much higher premium than if the insured were to apply for a new plan at the end of the ten policy years and was still in good health. Term 20 life insurance premiums are about double those of a Term 10 plan, but the premiums remain level for 20 years instead of ten.

Many people are unsure which plan best suits their situation. La Capitale recently introduced a hybrid policy, which offers a unique solution. Their 20 Period 10 Protection Plan provides premiums which are level for the first 20 policy years, but the insured gets a cash out option at the end of ten policy years. After the tenth anniversary, and for a period of 30 days following, a cash surrender value is available, giving the insured a choice between a ten and 20 year renewable term based on the development of his or her situation. One caveat is, the cash surrender value may be subject, in part, to income tax.

Below is an example of how the 20 Period 10 plan stacks up against the competition:

$500,000 of Term 20 coverage from RBC is $43.20/month. $500,000 of 20 Period 10 from La Capitale is $59.17/month. The cash out option at year ten is $3,015. You can get additional quotes by visiting our Instant Online Quote Page, or contact us at 1-866-899-4849.

ING Announces Plans To Sell Insurance Operations

Written on November 6, 2009 – 9:11 am | by Admin

ING – one of the largest financial services groups based in Europe with a significant presence in the United States, announced plans to split its banking and insurance/investment management operations with the goal of selling off its insurance operations over the next few years.

ING is selling its insurance business to gain approval from European competition authorities for the state-backed bail-out it received during the financial crisis.  The business decision to sell off assets was because of an intervention by the European competition authorities and may take years to unfold as ING will seek to get the best price for these operations to repay the Dutch government.

ING carries secure, investment-grade ratings from all rating organizations and continues to have a broad portfolio of consumer-friendly life insurance and annuity products.  I believe ING have some very distinct competitive advantages in the marketplace and are continue to market these products. In no way should we be concerned with the ING products that our clients currently hold or may be contemplating purchasing in the near future.
