RE: Mortgage and Final Expense Changes

 

Americo continues to be the leader in the Mortgage and Final Expense markets thanks to your hard work and dedication. We continually look for ways to increase the value proposition for you, your clients, and Americo, and are committed to finding ways to make it easier for you to build your business with Americo. With that in mind, we will be streamlining our Mortgage portfolio and making changes to our Final Expense products over the next few weeks. 

 

HMS Plus Series Changes Effective May 9, 2020

Beginning May 9, 2020, we will be streamlining our Cash Back Option products by rebranding the HMS Plus 125 CBO product to our new HMS Plus CBO. This key product will still offer 100% Return of Premium AND Living Benefits together, and the Accidental Death Benefit will be enhanced to equal 50% of the amount of the base death benefit. Commissions will remain the same as the current HMS Plus 125 CBO and there will be a modest increase to premiums.

 

With the addition of this enhanced HMS Plus CBO product, effective May 9, 2020, sales of the following products will be discontinued: HMS Plus 150 term and 150 CBO, HMS Plus 100 CBO and HMS Plus ADB w/ROP. Applications for these products must be dated and received by close of business Friday, May 8, 2020. Any applications received after May 15, 2020 will be returned.

 

We are also pleased to announce there will be no changes to HMS Plus 125 term, HMS Plus 100 term, HMS Plus w/ADB, Payment Protector, HMS Plus Continuation and Payment Protector Continuation.
