Is Your Life Insurance Still Right for You?

Is your life insurance policy still meeting your needs? On this episode of The Lebenthal Report, Michael Hartzman and Dominick Tavella welcome Thomas McKay, CLU®, ChFC®, Director of Advanced Sales at Crump Life Insurance Services, for a discussion about life insurance policy reviews and how coverage needs can evolve over time. A policy purchased years—or even decades—ago may have originally been designed to provide income protection for a young family. As circumstances change, that same policy may play a different role in retirement planning, long-term care, estate planning or leaving a legacy. The conversation covers: ✔ When and why to review a life insurance policy ✔ Term, whole life and other permanent insurance options ✔ Cash value and existing policies ✔ Life insurance and long-term care benefits ✔ The importance of updating beneficiaries ✔ Estate and legacy planning strategies ✔ Considerations before replacing an existing policy Michael and Dominick also break down the latest market environment, including rising Treasury yields, inflation concerns, Federal Reserve policy and why higher interest rates can affect the value of existing bonds.
