New data from the 2024 Insurance Barometer Study, from LIMRA and Life Happens, suggest that life insurance ownership remained steady with half of Americans reporting they have coverage.
Many consumers are aware they need (or need more) life insurance, presenting a critical opportunity for the industry to engage, raise awareness, and educate on the importance of life insurance. Understanding the varying levels of financial stress at different life stages for generations is important for aiding and educating prospective life insurance buyers, which over time can bridge the need-gap, and simplify the complicated world of life insurance for consumers.Related Resources
