New flexible features for every stage of life

Some of our products’ existing features continue to be key factors that set us apart in the market:

  • Conversion option to 14 permanent life products without evidence of insurability, up to age 70
  • Association option, up to age 70
  • Insurability option to split joint coverage into two individual coverages

Our range of term life products continues to evolve with the improvements coming this fall!

For policies sold on or after October 27:

Automatic renewal every 5 years

Our T10, T15, T20, T25 and T30 products will now offer automatic renewal every five years, up to age 85. No action or medical proof required: Coverage continues without interruption, giving your clients peace of mind.

Enhanced T65: More flexibility after age 65

  • Automatic renewal every 5 years
  • Conversion and association options extended until the insured person’s 70th birthday

Extended exchange option

The policyowner will now be able to exercise the exchange option during the first seven years after purchasing the policy, giving clients more time and flexibility to adapt the coverage to their changing needs.

Wider scope for illustrations

The maximum amount you can illustrate is increasing from $20 million to $25 million, giving you more leeway to respond to your clients’ needs.1
