Instant acceptance up to $2M thanks to the easing of medical requirements

September 25, 2020

 

An optimized underwriting experience for our advisors and clients!

Already a leader in instant acceptance at the point of sale via EVO, iA Financial Group continues to innovate by simplifying insurance underwriting for clients aged 50 or younger. With the easing of medical requirements and the use of predictive analytics, nearly half of these clients may benefit from instant acceptance when buying up to two million dollars in life insurance.

To benefit from this instant acceptance client experience, all it takes is to complete the personalized and simplified declaration of insurability on EVO. Telephone interviews are still required for clients who buy more than two million dollars in life insurance.

Retention of preferential status

Consequently, clients who buy over two million dollars in life insurance can continue to enjoy the competitive premium rates in our preferential classes.

Temporary rules regarding the easing of medical requirements for amounts up to $2M

For applications already in underwriting, we will be proactive and communicate to concerned advisors all the steps to take via the Advisor Centre.
