Insurance

Life/Annuities/Credit/ Disability

Because of their complexity, life insurance products are not well understood by consumers. CFA urges federal and state regulators to ensure that life insurance policies provide good value to, and be more easily understood by, consumers. Find out how to get your life insurance policy evaluated by a CFA actuary.

Read about CFA’s plans for future work on these issues here.
