The Power of Choice
Every financial professional should represent more than one product provider
Captive vs. Non-Captive Financial Professionals
One of the most crucial factors in the important process of buying life insurance is WHO you choose to guide you: a Captive or Non-Captive Financial Professional.
Captive Financial Professionals work for a specific company and are limited to offering their employer's products, which can create a narrower range of options.
Non-Captive Financial Professionals, on the other hand, operate independently and have the flexibility to provide a variety of products from different companies, allowing for pricing transparency and a more tailored approach to your unique financial needs.
Understanding the difference between these two types of professionals can significantly impact the quality of advice you receive, the financial products, and savings and benefit you’ll get.
Being ‘Non-captive’ is a far better reason to choose a financial professional than being polished, nice, or someone you know.
The non-captive advantage is obvious. Take a look...
Captive Financial Professionals
They can only sell clients term life insurance products from their employer, which may be overpriced and not in the clients best interest.
Competitive Limitations:
Restricted Product RangeLimited product offerings means captive agents are less likely to be able to meet the comprehensive needs of clients with a wide scope of available products.
Potential BiasRecommendations made by captive agents may be influenced by various company incentives and sales targets rather than the best interest of the client.
Missed OpportunitiesBy working exclusively with a captive agent, you risk missing out on superior products available in the broader market.
Non-Captive Financial Professionals
They can sell clients term life insurance products from a wide range of companies who compete for each client primarily on price.
Non-Captive Advantages:
Access to Multiple ProvidersCollaborating with an independent professional provides access to a wide array of products from multiple companies.
Tailored RecommendationsOne company’s products and prices can’t meet the needs of every client. Non-captive agents can help clients shop their term based on their specific needs.
Unbiased GuidancePartnering with an independent professional ensures you receive unbiased and honest advice tailored to your needs, free from corporate influences.
Competitive PricingComparing products and services from various companies allows you to find budget-friendly solutions without sacrificing quality or effectiveness.
Don’t Limit Your Choices—or Your Future
Choosing a captive financial professional limits your options and potential outcomes for your family's financial future. In contrast, an independent financial professional provides the necessary freedom to explore a broader range of optimal solutions tailored to your unique needs, finances, and aspirations.
