I recently took out
a loan from a bank. As a requirement, I enrolled in a Term

Any person or institution that can suffer financial
loss from the death of a person, or have an insurable interest
in that person, may be assigned as beneficiary in a life insurance
policy. In your case, you may designate the bank as your beneficiary
so that it is protected in the event that you are no longer
able to pay back your loan due to death or disability.
In general, the acceptable beneficiaries for a life insurance
policy are:
- legal spouse (common-law spouses are not valid as beneficiaries)
- children both natural or adopted
- parents, brothers, sisters
- creditors
- business partners/corporations
- charitable institutions (where the insured is a regular
donor)

I got a permanent
life insurance policy from Generali. I have already paid my
premiums for the last 5 years. However, I can no longer continue
paying for it. What options are available to me so I could
still continue protecting myself?
At the time of application, you will be given options
in case you default on the payments of your insurance premiums.
You may choose one from the following options:
Apply for Reduced Paid-Up Insurance -Your policy's
net cash value will be used to pay for a paid-up insurance
of the same plan as your original policy. However, the amount
of your coverage that can be purchased will be smaller than
the face value of your original policy.
Apply for an Extended Term Insurance - Your policy's
net cash value will be used to pay a term insurance for the
same coverage as your original policy for as long a terms
as the net cash value can provide.
Apply for an Automatic Premium Loan - A loan against
the policy's cash value will be used to pay for your due premium.
This will keep the original policy in force for the full amount
of coverage, as long as the cash value is sufficient to pay
for the due premiums.
How do I inquire about
the status of my policy?
