MetLife Launches Online Life Insurance Calculator

To help boost life insurance sales, New York-based MetLife (total assets of $481.2 billion) has developed the online Guaranteed Survivor Income Benefit (GSIB) calculator along with a life insurance rider for its individual universal life product.

The Web-based calculator breaks down the amount of life insurance an individual will need to provide for his or her family on a monthly basis—calculating life insurance out like a monthly paycheck—instead of basing the lump sum on uncertainties such as interest rates, the way it has been traditionally calculated. The calculator reinforces the universal life product's GSIB rider, a provision in the contract that ensures the life insurance will be distributed monthly to the survivor instead of the traditional way of receiving the benefit all at once.
