  18. Types of Insurance

  19. Term Insurance Term insurance provides protection for a specific period of time and generally pays a benefit only if death occurs during the “term.” Term periods typically range from one year to 30 years, with 20 years being the most common term.

  20. Key Features of Term Insurance • Convertibility to a Permanent Policy • Without evidence of insurability • Coverage needed for a longer period • Return of Premium • Refund of premium made over the term period • Premium is considerably higher (20-30%) • Accelerated Death Benefit • Allows a terminally ill person to collect a significant portion of the death benefit while still alive • Disability Waiver of Premium

  21. Features Unique to Permanent Insurance • Access to cash • Flexibility • Tax advantages • Guaranteed coverage • Stable premiums

  22. Types of Permanent Insurance • Whole Life • Provides a guaranteed amount of death benefit and a guaranteed rate of return on cash values. • Dividends • Universal Life • Adjustable premiums • Cash values grow at the current crediting rate. The crediting rate, as well as, cost of insurance is subject to change over the life of the policy. • Secondary Guarantees “No-Lapse Guarantee” • Variable Universal Life • Allows to have premium dollars allocated to a variety of investment options.

  23. Disability Insurance The chances of a disability occurring are much greater than most Americans realize Sources: America’s Health Insurance Plans, National Association of Insurance Commissioners, U.S. Commerce Department

  24. Disability Insurance Ask most people to think about their most valuable asset, and they'll mention their home, their car, their jewelry, or other possessions. But for most of us, our most valuable possession isn't anything of those things. It's our ability to earn a living. And just as you would insure your car, your home, and other valuable possessions, you need to insure yourself in case you are no longer able to work. That's what disability insurance does. It provides a source of replacement income if you're unable to work due to an illness or accident. For many, a sudden interruption of income could have serious financial consequences. Most of us have some kind of personal debt, typically a mortgage or credit card bills. Would you be able to maintain your standard of living if you were too ill or injured to work for an extended length of time? Half of all home foreclosures in the United States result from disability as do an alarming number of personal bankruptcies. Simply put, if you have a job you likely need disability insurance.The other thing to keep in mind is that an accident or illness that keeps you out of work for a period of time can be very costly. That's because people who become disabled not only need to continue providing for loved ones, but for themselves as well. A disabling injury or illness could lead to medical bills, modifications to your car or home, or other unforeseen needs that can be quite expensive. For all these reasons, almost anyone who works – whether they're single, married, with children or without – should consider disability insurance.
