New product will make life simpler for advisors with coverage approved in as little as one business day.
Manulife launched a new term insurance product for Canadians looking for a quick, simple protection with no medical tests.
"Manulife Quick Issue Term is designed for today's busy clients and their advisors seeking an easier and faster insurance purchase experience," said David Baker, Assistant Vice President, Insurance Products, Retail Markets, Manulife.
"Like other term insurance products, the client still works with their advisor, but we've drastically reduced the turnaround time by automating the application and underwriting processes."

"The short online application gives clients an answer in as little as one business day in most cases," said Karen Cutler, Chief Underwriter, Manulife.
The Manulife Quick Issue Term online application contains a series of qualifying questions that an advisor can quickly complete together with their client, either in person or by phone.
