Life Insurance
Since your greatest economic asset is likely your potential lifetime earnings, life insurance can give your family financial security by protecting your earnings if you die prematurely or become critically ill.
We have a range of flexible insurance product solutions with protection tailored to the needs of your family or business. Some solutions also offer tax-deferred savings.
All the flexibility you need
Universal life insurance coverage is exceptionally flexible. You can choose the amount of life insurance you need now and change it later as your needs change. You can select a joint policy covering two people that pays out after both people have passed away – or you can choose a joint policy covering up to five people that pays out when the first person passes away.
If you like, you can include several optional types of coverage tailored to your specific needs. Plus, your premiums can also be structured to suit your budget and future plans.
Universal life insurance also gives you access to cash. When your investment plan has accumulated sufficient cash value, you can withdraw cash from it, or borrow money using the policy as collateral.

How it works

When you choose a universal life insurance plan, we will help you design an investment portfolio that suits your unique risk tolerance. You can choose to invest in interest-bearing accounts, which guarantee a fixed rate of return. Or you can choose accounts that fluctuate with market performance.
