    As a MUTUAL we provide financial security DIFFERENTLY by focusing exclusively on our CLIENTS.

    *Dividends are not guaranteed and are paid at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. Dividends may be subject to taxation. Dividends will vary based on the actual investment returns in the Participating Account as well as mortality, expense, lapse, claims experience, taxes, and other experience of the participating block of policies. Changes in the dividend scale do not affect the guaranteed premium, guaranteed cash values, or guaranteed death benefit amount.  A copy of Equitable Life’s Dividend Policy and Participating Account Management Policy can be found on our website at www.equitable.ca.
     
    ** This applies to all new and active policy loans, including automatic premium loans. This change is for Equimax® policies that have a 9-digit policy number beginning with a “3” or an “8”. Some older policies may have other loan rates as they are based on the prime interest rate.
  3. Flexibility for a client’s ever-changing life

    Term life insurance offers full and partial conversion options to meet changing needs


    Life is always changing—whether a client is buying their first home, welcoming a new baby, or sending the kids off to college. While most clients think of term life insurance as a solution to meet a temporary need, they don’t necessarily consider the power of term conversion options to meet their future needs. 

    Full and partial conversion options can help meet a client’s needs as their life journey and insurance needs change, without having to provide proof of continued good health. 

    Full conversion:
    •    With full conversion, clients can convert all of their term coverage from their policy or rider to permanent life insurance. This allows the client to lock in a level premium rate for life.




    Partial conversion:
    •    With a partial conversion, clients can convert a portion of their term coverage from their policy or rider to a permanent plan. This allows them to help cover off both a short-term need and also provides lifetime protection.

    Did you know?
    Our partial conversion with a term rider carryover is now more flexible than ever. Read more about it here!

    For more information, please consult the Equitable Term Life insurance admin guide.

  4. Savings & Retirement Policy and Procedure updates regarding Electronic Signatures We have updated our policies and procedures regarding electronic signatures in the Savings and Retirement department. We are now able to accept electronically signed documents, from all major third-party signing vendors.  

    Including esign@equitable.ca as a non-signing reviewer is the preferred method as it ensures the security embedded documents are accurately and immediately available for Equitable. We will be automatically notified when signing is complete and will download eSigned forms immediately for processing. Including esign@equitable.ca as a non-signing reviewer is secure, quick, and efficient. Documents no longer need to be emailed to us – eSigned documents are sent directly to us once all signatures are completed, therefore you do not need to notify us once the documents are signed.  

    When esign@equitable.ca is not used to submit electronically signed documents, the following criteria are required: 
    • The original signed form and audit trail with all the security features intact 
    • The email address used to sign must match what is in our files (as provided on the application, for electronic policy delivery or through previous communication). If an email address has changed, or we don’t have an email contact for the signer, we will follow up for confirmation. 

    A guide on how to use esign@equitable.ca can be found here.

    Please note that Equitable does not accept digital signatures (images or fonts of a signature which are not stamped).

  8. International Women’s Day

    Reflecting on inclusion in our industry

    International Women’s Day is a great opportunity to pause and think about how we support the women clients we serve. In wealth management, inclusion is not just a theme for one day a year — it plays a critical role in building stronger relationships and long‑term business growth.

    Our recent Master Class – From Insight to Inclusion: Engaging Women Investors with Confidence –reinforced this.

    The 60-minute session, featuring Susan Silma, Client Experience Transformation Leader and industry speaker and columnist, looked at why many women still feel under‑served in our industry and what advisors can do to create a more engaging and supportive experience.

    Here are a few key takeaways from the conversation:

    •  Inclusion strengthens your practice. When women feel heard and understood, trust grows —and so does loyalty.
    •  Start with better conversations. Susan shared ways to turn research and insights into everyday discussions that feel relevant and meaningful to women.
    •  Consistency builds confidence. A clear, repeatable process for prospecting, onboarding and reviewing plans with women clients helps ensure they feel included from day one.

    Did you know: 82% of advisors who attended the live Master Class identified the need to add more women clients to their business.

    As we celebrate International Women’s Day, it is a good reminder that creating a space where women feel comfortable, informed and valued benefits everyone — and positions your practice for long‑term success.

    If you missed the session — or would like to revisit the ideas — the Master Class recording is now available on demand. On behalf of everyone at Equitable, Happy International Women’s Day, Canada!
