Providing life insurance to the poor is a good idea. However, any provider aiming to venture into this territory should not expect returns during initial business years, making the commercial viability difficult to define in short term. But once a service provider decides to take this initiative, it opens its doors to a host of new and innovative possibilities in terms of product offerings, technology, pricing, marketing and communications, customer relationship management, underwriting, operations and portfolio management. The nature of this business dictates that management should be ready to do away with traditional customer acquisition methods, which are very costly for a comparatively...

The price of long-term care insurance has really gone up. If you are a baby boomer and you have kept your eye on it for a few years, chances are you have noticed this. Last year, the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance (AALTCI) noted that a 60-year-old couple would pay an average of $3,490 a year in premiums for a standalone LTC policy. Changing demographics and low interest rates have prompted major insurance carriers to stop offering standalone LTC coverage.
