Term Insurance Coverage for as long as you live

Empire Life Solution Series

Yes, that’s right. The Empire Life Solution Series of term life insurance products provide coverage for customers for as long as they live. And it gets even better.

Unlike conventional products in the marketplace, all Solution Series products provide level coverage to life insurance age 100, when the coverage in force becomes paid-up. That same coverage then increases by 5% per year beginning on the policy anniversary when the life insured turns 101 and annually thereafter until the life insured passes away. The beneficiaries then receive a taxfree, enhanced estate benefit.

The Term 10 product provides lifetime coverage at guaranteed rates that increase every 10 years. The cost of insurance automatically becomes a level rate at the first step renewal after the life insured reaches age 75. The level cost of insurance is extremely competitive when compared to industry rates at those ages.

The Term 20 product operates in much the same way. Rates increase every 20 years until the first step renewal after the life insured attains age 65. The cost of insurance automatically becomes a level rate at that time.

Consider these benefits for clients as they age:

  • The step rate versions provide low cost solutions at younger ages and guaranteed, fixed costs for customers as they age.
  • Automatic levelizing of rates and coverage that continues no matter how long a person lives are unique benefits in the marketplace.
  • Increasing coverage after age 100 with no further premium commitments are advantages customers can enjoy with peace of mind.

Empire Life is committed to providing consumer accountable products at rates that are highly competitive over the long term. And that’s what life insurance is for - providing coverage no matter when tragedy strikes.

Life Insurance and the H1N1 Virus

We have been receiving numerous inquires recently about the H1N1 virus (Swine flu) asking if we should be taking out life insurance coverage specifically to cover ourselves and our loved ones in case the worse happens during this pandemic.


It does look like the H1N1 virus may come with a vengeance this fall with one study finding that we could see the peak as early as mid October with many people dying. So should you be running out to buy life insurance coverage in case something should happen to you?

Most of us do not like to think about death but it can happen to us at anytime and yes it is better to plan today for tomorrow. If it takes the H1N1 virus for you start thinking about it, it is better to take time to make that consideration and if needed to take action today.

It is important to note that if you contract the H1N1 virus and want to take out a Life Insurance policy, most insurance companies will not cover you until the symptoms have cleared. In some cases they may want a period of time to pass before they will even consider coverage.
