An idea for your next Keyman Policy
Are you a business owner? Have you thought about what would happen if you lost a key employee due to death?
Cincinnati Life Insurance Company can provide personal guidance about business continuity planning using Termsetter ROP. Your clients receive funds to offset costs related to a key employee’s death or a refund of their paid base premiums (excluding rider and substandard premiums) when that key employee survives the policy term.
