It is one of the most affordable type of permanent life insurance policies. However, it functions similar to a term policy in that there is no investment component (hence its affordability), but it is designed to last up to a certain age, not for a set period – it’s meant for the long haul. It’s a level premium plan that pays a guaranteed death benefit from age 85 to 121. It may also offer some flexibility and optional riders, such as return of premium and living benefits.
We have a number of top-rated carriers that offer this product: AIG, American National, John Hancock, Lincoln, Mutual of Omaha, Principal, Protective, Prudential, Sagicor, etc. Contact us to learn more!

Avoid Rejected Apps: Confirm Training Requirements BEFORE You Take an App!

1) Anti-money laundering (AML)
2) State regulatory and product training, particularly in New York
3) Carrier-specific product training
Not sure what training is needed?
That’s why we’re here! Contact our Contracting/Compliance department: licensing@gpagency.com or (800) 283-8376 (Brooklyn).
