Life is constantly evolving. But throughout all of life’s stages, one thing remains the same – the need to plan ahead – to build wealth and protect the bright financial future you’re building for yourself and your loved ones.
Life insurance is one of the most straightforward ways to protect what’s important, but before making
a purchase decision, ask yourself:
• Are your family’s fnances protected in case of an early death of a primary income earner?
• Do you have outstanding debt? Who is responsible for that debt if you die?
• Would you like to leave a tax-free inheritance to your loved ones or to a charity when you die?
Whatever your life stage, consider adding manulife uL universal life insurance coverage to your
fnancial plan. ask your advisor how it can help you protect your loved ones and enhance the
fnancial legacy you leave behind.

there’s about a 2-year gap between:

Universal life insurance a singLe, duaL-purpose soLution for your financiaL pLan When it comes to fnancial planning, we know setting goals, including putting a life insurance plan in place is
the right thing to do for our loved ones. But we often underestimate the need for insurance coverage, or struggle
when it’s time to make the decision.
There’s a way to simplify your fnancial planning through one, convenient insurance solution designed to meet both
your life insurance and investing needs. It’s called universal life insurance – a blend of two key fnancial planning
elements in a single, straightforward policy:
Long-term insurance
protection for your
loved ones
tax-advantaged investing
to help enhance the fnancial
legacy you leave behind pLus 1 2
A simpler way to achieve two important goals The insurance protection and investment components of universal life work together to meet a variety of
fnancial planning needs:

It works hard, but simply The purpose of a universal life insurance policy is two-fold. It provides long-term insurance protection to
protect the legacy you’re building for those you care about. It also gives you the opportunity to invest and
build additional wealth over time, within the same policy.
The life insurance protection and the investments held inside a universal life policy can be paid to your
benefciary, tax free when you die, leaving a larger fnancial legacy than what might otherwise be possible.
While that’s a lot to accomplish, don’t mistake hard work for complexity. The way universal life insurance
works is quite simple.
