Study Notes
Insurable Interest

Reinstatement of Life Insurance Policy
- A policyowner must furnish evidence of insurability when reinstating a lapsed life insurance policy.
Death During Grace Period
- If the person whose life is insured dies during the grace period with unpaid premiums, the insurance company will usually pay the beneficiary the full policy death benefit.
Endowment Policy Settlement Options
- The basic settlement options for an endowment policy are the lump sum option, the income option, and the annuity option.
Policy Rescission
- An insurance company generally has the right to rescind a life insurance policy if the policyowner misrepresented or concealed material facts on the application.
Insurance Agent Licensing
- Insurance agents must be licensed to ensure they have the necessary knowledge and skills to advise clients and sell insurance products effectively.
Paid-Up Insurance Option
- When a policy owner elects the paid-up insurance option, they surrender part of their policy's face value to purchase a smaller paid-up policy with no further premium payments.
Standard Provisions
- The standard provisions of a life insurance policy do not include a "vanishing premium" clause.
Term Policy
- A renewable term policy cannot be sold as a basic policy contract, as it is a rider or an addendum to a permanent life insurance policy.
Underwriting Life Insurance
- If a housewife without gainful employment applies for life coverage, the agent should determine the basis of insurable interest, as it is likely based on the husband's income.
Law of Large Numbers
- According to the law of large numbers, the larger the number of exposures, the more predictable the outcome of seemingly chance events.
Anti-Selection in Insurance
- Anti-selection occurs when individuals with a higher risk of loss are more likely to purchase insurance, leading to higher claims and losses for the insurer.
Misstatement of Age
- If there is a misstatement of age in an insurance policy, the amount of insurance is adjusted proportionally to the correct age-based premium rate.
