Starting January 11, 2021, Protective Classic Choice term will have even lower rates, putting it in the Top 3 or better 95% of the time in monthly pay scenarios and in the Top 3 or better 92% of the time in annual pay scenarios. We have also made several other changes, including raising the maximum issue ages in our 10 – 30 year term periods, to help you offer this market­leading term product to even more clients.

Details about enhancements to the product:

  • Extending maturity age
    To help you serve more clients, we are increasing the maturity age from 90 to 95.
  • Increasing maximum issue ages
    We also increased maximum issue ages across several term periods to help you cover even
    more clients.

  • Increasing the policy fee
    Our policy fee will be increasing from $55.00 to $65.00, but will remain fully commissionable!

We recently added guaranteed, level-term options at 35 and 40 years, in addition to our 10-, 15-, 20-, 25- and 30-year term periods. Protective is now one of only three national carriers to offer more than 30 years of level term coverage. Plus, our maximum issue ages for our 35- and 40-year term periods are in line with (or better than) other top carriers.2 And as always, you can accelerate your business by using Protective Velocity – our suite of digital solutions.
