(Ten years ago, Yamina invested $2,500 in a segregated fund contract with a 75%/100% guarantee structure. The market value of the contract peaked at $4,500 but then fell. Now, at maturity, the units are worth $2,250.
How much can Yamina expect to receive?)
Claire, Yvon's client, wants to make changes to her insurance portfolio. In addition to her group insurance, which provides coverage for twice her salary, she has a participating whole life policy, and a 20-year term insurance to cover her debts and provide financial protection for her son. She explains that her job has been abolished and that her employer plans to offer her something else in six months. For now, her budget is significantly affected and she also thinks she has too much insurance. She asks that Yvon cancel her insurance contracts until she starts her new job and to replace them with the least-expensive term insurance possible.
Further to Claire’s request, what should Yvon do?
Pat, a 30-year-old youth worker, meets with his life insurance agent to discuss disability insurancecoverage. After a thorough analysis of Pat’s needs, the agent recommends a policy with a $1,500 a month benefit (50% of Pat’s current salary) payable to age 65 after a 31-day waiting period. Pat has put enough money away to cover 6 months’ worth of expenses, if necessary, but he would prefer not to dip into his savings. He applies for the policy, with the expectation that the premium will be $75 a month. He already thinks this is pricey and would not want to pay any more than that. Some time later, underwriting informs the agent that the policy has been approved, but with a 125% premium rating due to Pat being overweight. Which one of the following options would make the most sense to reduce the premium to a level Pat would accept without compromising too much on his coverage?
