Why do my insurance premiums change?
Insurance premiums increase each year due to two main factors: your increasing age and the impact of inflation.
As you get older, the risk of health issues or death increases, requiring the insurance company to charge more to cover that risk. Additionally, insurance policies may include Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments to account for inflation.
These adjustments ensure that the coverage amount keeps up with rising costs, and as a result, premiums may increase to maintain the purchasing power of the policy over time.
If you’d like to avoid these increases, ask us about Level premium options.
