The Uses of IPT
There are many situations where IPT may be appropriate. Here are just a few examples:
-
Temporary Need for Protection
When coverage is needed for a relatively short period of time, IPT can be ideal. A common use is when a mortgage or student loan is taken. -
Limited Funds
In situations where life insurance is essential but dollars are scarce, IPT could serve as a stop-gap. Young people starting their careers can choose IPT, then convert to a permanent plan as their finances improve. -
Supplemental Insurance
IPT can be added as a rider to some permanent plans to help boost the death benefit. It's an affordable way to increase total insurance coverage. -
Family Coverage
Optional riders such as Spouse and Children's Insurance, and Children's Insurance can be added to the policy to extend coverage to family members. (See "Riders" for more information.) -
Protection for Business Owners
IPT can be used as a hedge to cover outstanding loans, thus shielding partners or shareholders from financial hardship.
