In case you missed it… read our life insurance as an asset class article
Equitable in partnership Wayne Miller, BMATH, ASA
The concept of viewing life insurance as an asset class only became mainstream in Canada 12 years ago, after Wayne Miller, BMATH, ASA, made the case for it in an industry magazine article.
Has anything changed in the past decade? Does a mutual company vs. a stock company make a difference? Equitable has been collaborating with Wayne to provide an answer – which is provided in this follow-up article to his original piece.

Digital Payment Options for Your Client’s First and Subsequent Annual Payments for Individual Life a
This article has been updated to reflect changes to the Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) for new business annual premiums – see below #2.
To enhance the ease of doing business with Equitable Life, we have added some additional payment methods to help your clients make their first and subsequent annual premium payments easily.
Three digital payment options for annual premium payments:
1. Online bill payment - Your client can pay their annual premium easily and quickly by using the online bill payment option through their financial institution. On your client’s banking website, they must set up “EQUITABLE LIFE-INDIVIDUAL LIFE & CI” as a “PAYEE”. Use the 9 (or 7) digit policy number as the “account number” then pay this new “bill”. This is the preferred option for annual payments.
2. Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) - For policies where annual premiums are $2,500 or greater, your client now has the additional option of an annual PAD payment. Your client needs to provide a signed PAD authorization form, or a signed letter of direction that indicates they have read and agree to the terms of the PAD. This is a one-time authorization and needs to be repeated for subsequent annual payments.
3. Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) or Wire Transfer - If online bill payment or a one-time PAD will not meet your client’s needs, such as when transferring funds from another financial institution or business to Equitable Life, and the annual premiums are $20,000 or greater, then an EFT is now an option that is available. A wire transfer is available on an exception basis only and is subject to approval.
Please contact your Regional Sales Team or customer service team for further questions.

● Other factors used to decide the dividend scale will remain the same.
● The interest rate for policies with dividends on deposit will change. It will go from 2.25% to 3.50% on July 1, 2024.
● The interest rate for most policy loans will remain at 6.50%. This applies to both new and existing policy loans, and automatic premium loans. It specifically applies to Equimax® policies with a 9-digit policy number that starts with either "3" or "8".

*The dividend scale interest rate (DSIR) is different from the participating account (PAR) rate of return. The PAR rate of return is the return on the investments in the participating account over the calendar year. The DSIR smooths out the ups and downs of the participating account experience.
