I live in Australia, do I need to go for a medical for a universal life insurance policy?

Some life insurance companies offer universal life insurance to Australian residents with no medical. But if you want life insurance coverage of $5m or more, you will need a medical. Capital for Life Australia has an approved list of medical clinics in Sydney and Melbourne that clients can attend.

Can I borrow against life insurance policy if I am Australian resident?

Yes, as an Australian resident, you can often borrow against your life insurance policy. This is typically done through a policy loan, where you use your policy's cash value as collateral.

Why Consider a Policy Loan?

Lower Interest Rates: Policy loans generally have lower interest rates than other borrowing options like banks.
Flexibility: You can often choose your own repayment schedule.
No Credit Check: Your credit score doesn't impact your ability to take a policy loan.

Important Considerations:

Policy Type: Not all policies offer loan provisions. Capital for Life provides IUL policies that can be used for policy loans.
Cash Value: You can only borrow against the available cash value in your policy.
Interest Accrual: Unpaid interest can reduce your death benefit.

Can Australian residents get premium financing for a universal life insurance policy?

Yes, as an Australian resident, you can secure premium financing for a universal life insurance policy. This strategy allows you to leverage your policy's cash value to finance a portion of your premiums, potentially freeing up cash flow for other investments or expenses. Capital for Life specializes in assisting Australians with premium financing solutions.

Why Consider Premium Financing with Capital for Life?

  • Expert Guidance: Capital for Life's advisors can help you understand the intricacies of premium financing and how it can benefit your financial goals.
  • Tailored Solutions: Capital for Life works with a network of lenders to find the most suitable financing options for your specific needs and risk profile.
  • Cash Flow Optimisation: Premium financing can unlock liquidity by reducing your out-of-pocket premium payments.
  • Wealth Accumulation Potential: With a well-structured policy, premium financing can potentially enhance your wealth accumulation strategy.

Important Considerations:

  • Policy Suitability: Not all universal life insurance policies are ideal for premium financing. Capital for Life can help you assess the suitability of your existing policy or recommend appropriate options.
  • Interest Costs: Premium financing involves borrowing, and interest costs need to be factored into your financial plan.
  • Market Fluctuations: Policy performance can be influenced by market fluctuations, and Capital for Life can provide ongoing guidance and support to manage these risks.

What is life expectancy in Australia?

According to data published by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2020, the average life expectancy in Australia is 83 years. Male life expectancy in Australia is 81.3 years, while female life expectancy is 84.8 years. Australia ranks 7th in the world for life expectancy. These statistics are based on the latest available data and are subject to change over time.

Life expectancy for Australia is an important factor for life insurance companies when determining the premium rates for their policies issued to Australian residents. A person's life expectancy plays a role in calculating the risk level associated with insuring them, as the longer a person is expected to live, the more likely they are to make a claim on their policy. As a result, life insurance premiums are typically lower for individuals with a higher life expectancy and higher for those with a shorter life expectancy. By understanding the average life expectancy in Australia, life insurance companies can better evaluate the risk associated with offering coverage to residents of Australia and adjust their premiums accordingly. Australia is classed as an 'A' risk rated country by many international life insurers meaning it is deemed a high life expectancy country.
