Why You Should Buy It from a Broker (Not the Bank)

When Canadians think of BMO, they usually think of banking—but BMO Insurance is also one of the country's most respected life insurance providers with an "A" (Excellent) Financial Strength Rating.

Here’s the key insight: The insurance you buy at a bank is often very different from what you can access through a licensed broker.

1. The "Bank" vs. The "Broker"

At the Bank (Creditor Insurance)

• The bank is the beneficiary
• Coverage decreases over time
• Premium stays the same
• Coverage ends if you switch lenders

Through a Broker (Individual Insurance)

• You choose the beneficiary
• Coverage remains level
• Policy is portable

2. BMO Term Life Insurance

Ideal for families needing affordable protection:

• Flexible terms: 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 years
• Exchange option within first 5 years (no medical exam)
• Guaranteed conversion to permanent insurance

3. BMO Whole Life Insurance

Estate Protector

Best for maximizing long-term legacy and death benefit.

Wealth Accelerator

Best for building cash value early for business or retirement use.

Both include stable growth through performance bonuses.

4. Compassionate Benefit

BMO allows early access to death benefits if facing serious health conditions—even up to 5 years life expectancy.

5. Critical Illness Coverage

• Covers 25 major conditions
• Early Discovery Benefit (up to $50,000)
• Tax-free payout within 30 days
