When it comes to securing your legacy, life insurance can be a powerful tool in your estate planning arsenal. Here are some key factors underwriters consider: 1. Coverage Needs: Determining the right amount of coverage is essential to meet the financial needs of your beneficiaries and cover any outstanding debts or taxes. 2. Health & Age: Your health and age at the time of application impact underwriting decisions. Generally, the younger and healthier you are, the more favorable the rates. 3. Policy Type: Whether it's term, whole life, or universal life insurance, the type of policy you choose affects premiums, coverage duration, and potential cash value accumulation. 4. Beneficiaries: Designating beneficiaries is a critical aspect of estate planning. Underwriters assess these designations to ensure they align with your wishes and legal requirements. 5. Estate Tax Considerations: Life insurance can help offset potential estate taxes. Underwriters evaluate your estate's tax liabilities to tailor the coverage accordingly. 6. Financial Standing: Your overall financial health and stability play a role in underwriting. Factors such as income, assets, and liabilities are taken into account. #estateplanning #lifeinsurance #financiallegacy #legacyplanning #insuranceunderwriting #financialsecurity #wealthmanagement #protectyourlegacy #estatestrategy #financialplanning #trustonefinancial

The Swiss Re Institute forecasts a significant boost in profitability for the life insurance industry due to rising interest rates. Over the next decade, an additional US$1.5 trillion in global life savings premiums is expected, more than double the amount generated in the previous decade. Jérôme Jean Haegeli, Swiss Re’s Group Chief Economist, said: “Higher interest rates are a game changer, providing life insurance and pension products a tailwind to much better tackle the retirement savings challenges of ageing demographics. Savings products are attractive again as a direct consequence of normalising interest rates. Higher investment yields also benefit long-duration protection products.” #insurtechinsights #insurancenews #insurance https://lnkd.in/euRbt8WZ
