  5. Segregated funds – a secure choice for small-business owners Canadian small-business owners may be gambling with their financial future by foregoing personal financial protection, especially during times of economic uncertainty. Small-business owners can potentially put their personal property, investments, and even their retirement savings in jeopardy, if they fail to protect these assets. One way to do that is through investing with segregated funds.

    Because segregated fund contracts are held outside of the estate, they offer privacy and discretion in passing assets to those you care about most. Segregated funds offer the potential for creditor protection on both registered and non-registered assets, which can be especially advantageous to small business owners and entrepreneurs.

    Segregated funds offer small-business protection:
    • 75% - 100% of your premiums (less withdrawals) are guaranteed when your contract matures or on your death.
    • Bypass probate and associated fees by naming a beneficiary.
    • No deferred sales charges at death.
    • Quick payment to beneficiaries after you pass away.
    • Private and confidential beneficiary designations.
    • Creditor protection may be available in the event of bankruptcy or lawsuit.
    Equitable’s Pivotal Select™ may offer protection from the claims of creditors. Self-employed professionals and business owners should consider protecting their personal assets from professional liability. In the event of bankruptcy or lawsuit, your personal assets may be protected from seizure if you have named your spouse, child, parent or grandchild as beneficiary. Having this added protection can help secure your financial future.

  7. New! Evidence of Insurability Schedule We are pleased to announce Equitable’s new Evidence of Insurability Schedule. The new schedule applies to all life and critical illness insurance applications signed on or after October 5, 2024.   

    Here are the benefits to you:

    ●  New chart is easier to read with more clarity and transparency.
    ●  ECG and TST are no longer routinely required for Life applicants.
    ●  Blood and urine requirement is streamlined for Life applicants.
    ●  Detailed underwriting requirements for higher coverage amounts and mature applicants.

    Please refer to the new Evidence of Insurability schedule (Form #1343) for full details.

    Equitable® has the right to ask for more evidence of insurability. We will do this if we feel it is needed to assess the risk. 





    Key changes – Age and amount requirements 

    Life applicants:

    ●  Resting ECG: No longer a routine age and amount requirement. This may still be requested at our underwriter’s discretion.
    ●  Treadmill ECG: No longer required at any age or amount.
    ●  Standalone Urine: Standalone urine changed to blood and urine at $100,001 and $500,000 coverage amounts for clients over age 55.
    ●  Mature Age Focus Interview (MAFI): New for clients aged 75+. As part of the paramedical, we will assess the applicant’s Activities of Daily Living, social activities, and word recall ability.

    Life and Critical Illness applicants:

    ●  For clients aged 70+, evidence is now valid (recent) if completed within the past 6 months. For all other applicants (ages 18-69), there is no change – evidence is valid if completed within the past 12 months.

    Financial/Third-party verification

    Reminder – this is required for life insurance amounts over $5M. Our underwriting team will be pleased to assist you with this step.
