+• In this way, the minimum amounts are guaranteed at the end of each year of the contract; these values ​​are called mathematical reserves
+• Since the minimum amount at the maturity of the contract is guaranteed, it follows that the intermediate values ​​(mathematical reserves) over the entire duration of the policy are also guaranteed
+• The notion of mathematical reserve can be difficult for the client to understand; if you end up discussing these details with him, instead of a mathematical reserve, you can use the phrase ""guaranteed accumulated sums""

+• That's why in the insurance market in developed countries, life insurance holds the largest share, as in gross annualized premiums (PBA)
+• Remember: the guaranteed technical interest is guaranteed for the entire duration of the policy
+• This means that no matter what happens in the economy, no matter how interest rates fluctuate, the insured, respectively the beneficiary - i.e. the child, benefits from the same minimum interest for the entire duration of the policy
+• If the question ""so what?"" crosses your mind, it would not hurt to consider the following realities:
+• In the years 1995-2000, when the sale of life insurance took off in Romania, the guaranteed technical interest had the value of 5.5%
+• A customer who bought a traditional life insurance in 2000, with a duration of 30 years, benefits from the same minimum interest until 2030 (!)
+• When you talk to your client about saving for the long term, when you get to present the benefits of traditional life insurance, focus on safety, not profit
+• The safety argument will not be able to contradict it, while the profit argument, yes...
+• There are other investment instruments that can generate a higher return than traditional life insurance; remember the nuance: ""can"""

+• How?
+• The one who suffered the damage is quickly compensated by the insurer, without having to endure the ordeal of lawsuits that last for years
+• The person who caused the damage preserves his savings, income, properties, and implicitly the good life of his family, because the damage is paid quickly, by the insurer, and he is not obliged to go through the courts for years..."

+What total amount does the beneficiary (child) receive when the policy matures?,"
+• The guaranteed technical interest is a minimum value that the insurers obtain, throughout the duration of the contract
+• In reality, insurers usually get higher investment returns (improperly called ""interests"").

+• The investment surplus is divided between the insurer and the beneficiary (the child), based on the profit sharing scheme:
+- The greater part belongs to the insured (85-90%)
+- The smallest part goes to the insurer (15-10%)
+• When the policy matures, the beneficiary (child) receives the guaranteed sum insured plus participation in the winnings

+• Especially in the case of businesses, selling enough insurance can be done both by updating policies (up-sell) and by diversifying policies (cross-sell)
+• For example, an SME type business can develop, which can involve both increasing the insured sums and adding new clauses on the policy that is being renewed (up-sell), but also covering new risks, through other types of policies (cross-sell)
+• You decide, in the end, if you want to meet the client and talk with him, or are you content with sending the policy
+• So that the client does not perceive online communication as negligence, or even disinterest, ask him from the beginning of the relationship with your way of working and ask for his consent
+• Concretely, during the first meeting with the client, you can say something like this...
+• For you, insurance means safety
+• For me it is a business, and I do everything I can to make it efficient
+• In this sense, I usually agree with clients that the transmission of due dates, renewal notices, offers and including policies, should be done mainly online
+• This in no way diminishes the care I have for each individual client, on the contrary, we both have a record of communication, as all messages remain on the phone or laptop

+• Use pauses to emphasize important ideas
+• Write down important ideas; otherwise you will forget them"
+Who should you choose as a role model?,"
+• Someone who makes money in a way that you can too
+• If you will choose as your model an intermediary who earns well, but sells, for example, CAR policies worth tens of thousands of Euros, because he has relations at the mayor's office or in a party, and you do not have high-level relations either town hall, nor to any party, then you will probably be disappointed
+• But you can ""steal"" work from any intermediary who does something good; it can be a statement, a question, a gesture, an inflection of the voice or a work strategy

+- Insists on covering major risks (death, disability, serious illness, home destruction, business destruction, damage caused to third parties), as the case may be

+• In any case, it doesn't work for someone who is healthy and happy...it works for someone who is experiencing misfortune, don't you agree?
+• Sir..., I want to tell you some things about life insurance"
+How do you deal with customers who resent your insistence?,"
+• Sometimes clients react badly to the intermediary's insistence
+• Why?
+• Because Romanians are not used to taking care of themselves and perceive your good intentions as something contrary to their personal interests
+• In this context, how much should you insist?
+• As in everything, you have to find a balance:
+- If you insist too little or not at all, the client will remain underinsured and you will lose out on commission - in that order!

+• In some cases, policies require risk inspection or are even issued by other, specialized persons
+• In order for the subscription and issuance process to be as short as possible, it is good to have contact persons in the specialized departments, who will serve you promptly

+• You yourself generated exactly what you wanted to avoid: objections
+• Specifically, avoid statements like:

+• ... who contracted a loan; why?
+• ... who are key people in a business; why?
+• To sell life insurance you can appeal to feelings of care, affection and even shame
+• For example, you can ask:
+• What will relatives and friends say about you if you leave your family without money?
+• In fact, the need for protection, i.e. life insurance, is not the client's, but those who, in one way or another, depend on him
+• That's why you'll often hear “Why do I need life insurance? If they die, that's…”
+• Life insurance is not for selfish people"
+What clauses can be attached to the mixed life insurance policy?,"• Clauses can be attached to mixed life insurance that:
+• Increase death protection
+• Provides money for treatment in case of accident or illness
+• Some of the clauses may also cover other family members
+• Premiums related to additional clauses are not invested, they represent an expense"
+What does capitalization mean?,"• Capitalization (in popular terms ""interest on interest"" or ""snowball effect"") means the annual, repeated reinvestment of the amount existing at the end of the previous year
+• It is important to remember that the guaranteed capitalization mechanism, specific to traditional life insurance, guarantees the client that his sums will always increase, so they will never decrease: today the insured has more money than yesterday, and tomorrow he will have more money than today
+• There are also capitalized bank deposits
+• But bank deposits usually have a duration of one year, the money can then be withdrawn without penalty, while a life insurance with capitalization has a long duration, usually 20...30 years
+• Different financial instruments with different purposes"
+How much money do I get at the end of joint life insurance?,"• At the maturity of the policy you receive the sum insured plus the additional profit
+• That is, you receive at least the sum assured, which is guaranteed by the contract
+• If the guaranteed sum insured at maturity is lower than the sum of the premiums, explain to the client the reason: the age of the client and the relatively short term of the contract, which makes the default and capitalization period short
+• Explain to the customer that this product gives them certain amounts in a world full of uncertainties
+• The insurer undertakes to obtain the guaranteed interest year after year, for periods of 20...30 years
+• What other financial institution offers guaranteed interest for decades?"
+What is joint life insurance?,"• Mixed insurance is life insurance with a savings component
+• It is a traditional product, so the sums insured are guaranteed"
+What happens to joint life insurance if premiums are waived?,"• The policy remains valid but for a lower sum assured, called reduced sum assured
+• A great advantage, isn't it?
+• In this case, the client will still have a mixed life insurance, but ""smaller"", without paying anything more
+• The accumulated sum guaranteed (ie the mathematical reserve) will continue to be invested and the insurer still guarantees the same technical interest"
+How much money do I get back if I cancel my joint life insurance policy?,"• If you cancel the policy within the first 3 years, you get nothing back
+• If you terminate the policy from the 4th year onwards, you get the surrender value plus additional earnings on the date of termination
+• The redemption value is specified in the contract for each individual year"
+What amount does the insurer pay in case of termination of joint life insurance?,"• The surrender value is the amount received upon termination
+• Redemption value is a percentage of the guaranteed accumulated amount (or mathematical reserve)
+• A spouse buys a mixed life insurance for 15 years, with the insured sum of 45 thousand lei
+• In the 7th year, terminate the policy
+• The compensation paid to the insured is calculated as follows:
+• The redemption amount corresponding to the last fully paid year (6th)
+• 12690
+• +
+• Additional earnings at the date of termination (simulation)
+• 609
+• =
+• 13299
+• Receiving a lower amount of money than what was paid, when terminating the policy, is one of the main reasons for customer dissatisfaction
+• Be prepared to deal with this topic
+• Explain to the client that, in addition to the redemption value, guaranteed by the contract, he will also receive the profit participation, calculated on the date of termination
+• Termination of the policy means breach of contract
+• In order to pay the client the money owed to him, the insurer must liquidate some investments
+• And this operation has a cost, which the insured bears
+• Explain to the customer that all values ​​in the table are guaranteed by the contract
+• In addition, they are guaranteed by the FGA in the event of the insurer's bankruptcy"
+How does joint life insurance work?,"• Can you sell mixed life insurance without understanding how it works?
+• The reality is that… yes
+• But, out of ignorance, you risk misinforming or deceiving the customer
+• Knowing how joint life insurance works will give you security and help you logically answer questions and objections"
+Why do I get less at the end of my mixed life insurance than I paid?,"• The guaranteed amount at maturity may be lower than the amount of premiums paid because (*):
+• The capitalization period is in some cases relatively short
+• Protection money and policy administration money are not invested
+• (*) The above situation is possible in the case of short-duration policies - under 15 years, in the case of elderly clients and in the case of low-value premiums"
+How is compound life insurance inflation protected?,"• An example of a mechanism:
+• The insured amount increases annually with the inflation index
+• The insurance premium increases with a percentage communicated by the insurer"
+How is compound life insurance policy inflation protected?,"• The insurer annually increases the insured amount by the percentage of inflation
+• In exchange for the increase of the insured amount, the insurer requests an increased premium, correlated with the increase of the insured amount"
+How do you get the guaranteed amounts at the end of each year?,"• In terms of guaranteed (traditional) life insurance, of which mixed life insurance is also a part, capitalization means the following: each year the amount existing at the end of the previous year (called the mathematical reserve) is invested, together with the investment premium from the starting year
+• The insurer guarantees that the minimum investment return will be equal to the guaranteed technical interest
+• In this way, the minimum amounts are guaranteed at the end of each year of the contract; these values ​​are called mathematical reserves
+• Since the minimum amount at the maturity of the contract is guaranteed, it follows that the intermediate values ​​(mathematical reserves) over the entire duration of the policy are also guaranteed
+• The notion of mathematical reserve can be difficult for the client to understand; if you end up discussing these details with him, instead of a mathematical reserve, you can use the phrase ""guaranteed accumulated sums""
+• It is important to note – and to communicate to the client – ​​that these accumulated guaranteed amounts are guaranteed to the client both by the insurer, by contract, and by the ASF, through the FGA
+• The bottom line is this: traditional life insurance (that is, with a guaranteed technical interest) is among the safest long-term investments
+• Westerners have known this for hundreds of years - the first life insurances appeared in the 19th century; Romanians are only now (re)learning...
+• That's why in the insurance market in developed countries, life insurance holds the largest share, as in gross annualized premiums (PBA)
+• Remember: the guaranteed technical interest is guaranteed for the entire duration of the policy
+• This means that no matter what happens in the economy, no matter how interest rates fluctuate, the insured benefits from the same minimum interest for the entire duration of the policy
+• If the question ""so what?"" crosses your mind, it would not hurt to consider the following realities:
+• In the years 1995-2000, when the sale of life insurance took off in Romania, the guaranteed technical interest had the value of 5.5%
+• A customer who bought a traditional life insurance in 2000, with a duration of 30 years, benefits from the same minimum interest until 2030 (!)
+• When you talk to your client about saving for the long term, when you get to present the benefits of traditional life insurance, focus on safety, not profit
+• The ""security"" argument will not be able to contradict it, while the ""profit"" argument will...
+• There are other investment instruments that can generate a higher return than traditional life insurance; remember the nuance: ""can"""
+What happens to my joint life insurance policy if I stop paying?,"• If you stop paying premiums in the first 3 years, the policy is terminated
+• If you stop paying premiums from the 4th year onwards, the policy remains valid but for a lower value, called reduced sum assured
+• The reduced insured amount is paid to you at the maturity of the policy, or to the beneficiaries on death, if you prematurely disappear from the family life
+• In addition, either at maturity or at death, the insurer pays the additional gain realized"
+What is the role of joint life insurance policy for a family?,"• Mixed life insurance has a dual role:
+• Ensures the financial stability of the family in the event of the premature death of the insured
+• Ensures the accumulation of a certain amount at a certain time (eg retirement)"
+Can the joint life insurance policy be changed?,"• Yes
+• Most insurers accept policy changes on your anniversary
+• If you wish to increase the insured amount, the insurer will request the completion of a new medical questionnaire"
+What total amount does the policyholder receive when the policy matures?,"• The guaranteed technical interest is a minimum value that the insurers obtain, throughout the duration of the contract
+• In reality, insurers usually get higher investment returns (improperly called ""interests"").
+• Correct is the investment result and not the interest because the interest is specific to bank deposits, or insurers mainly invest in bonds, where the gain is called ""coupon""
+• If the investment result exceeds the guaranteed technical interest, an investment surplus appears
+• The investment surplus is divided between the insurer and the insured, based on the profit-sharing scheme:
+• Most of it goes to the insured (85-90%)
+• The smallest part goes to the insurer (15-10%)
+• At the maturity of the policy, the insured receives the guaranteed sum insured plus participation in the profit
+• That is, he gets at least the sum assured, never less
+• For short-term contracts, or when the insured is elderly, or both, the additional earnings can compensate for the fact that the guaranteed amount at maturity is lower than the amount of the premiums
+• The additional profit is paid in any situation of termination of the contract: death, survival or termination"
+What risks does joint life insurance cover?,"• Mixed life insurance covers the two complementary risks that may occur during the policy:
+• Death
+• Survival
+• Usually, with this type of policy, the sum assured on death is equal to the sum assured on survival
+• Since there is certainty of occurrence of one of the insured risks, there is also certainty of payment of the insured sum
+• If you feel like you have someone, you can seriously joke:
+• With this policy, you are worth as much to your family, whatever happens to you
+• Highlights the unique and unbeatable advantage of this product: whatever happens to the insured, the money goes back to the family"
+What happens to the joint life insurance policy if the insurer goes bankrupt?,"• Bankruptcy of a serious insurer is unlikely
+• If, however, it does, then you are paid the surrender value on the date of bankruptcy
+• The redemption value is paid...
+• From the insurer's reserves, if they are sufficient
+• From the Insured's Guarantee Fund, if the insurer's reserves are insufficient
+• So whatever happens, you recover the surrender value, from the contract"
+How is the money paid for joint life insurance an investment?,"• In order to obtain the guaranteed amount at the maturity of the policy, in any economic conditions, insurers invest the life insurance capital mainly in safe instruments:
+• ≈ 85% in bonds
+• ≈ 15% in deposits, shares, etc"
+What information do you require to offer joint life insurance?,"• The minimum information for bidding is as follows:
+• What is your salary?
+• Or the alternative: in what range are your incomes?
+• How old are you?
+• At what age do you want to receive the money saved?
+• How much do you want to save, annually (I recommend 5...8% of income)?"
+What part of the insurance premium is invested?,"• Part of the insurance premium is represented by the costs related to the policy (for example the risk premium, commissions, medical tests, FGA tax, correspondence, printing)
+• Part of the insurance premium is invested; this part is called investment premium
+• Little is invested in the early years because there are high expenses
+• For this reason, if the insured terminates the policy in the first years (for example in the first three years) he does not recover any of the money paid; it is good to tell the client this, so that they do not confuse mixed life insurance with a bank deposit...
+• Starting from the fourth year, the investment premium represents an increasing percentage of the insurance premium, reaching values ​​of 90-95% in most of the contract
+• To the question ""Well, isn't all my money invested, like at the bank?"", the answer must be:
+• We are not talking about a deposit, but about insurance, and protection has a cost
+• Because the policy covers two risks – death and survival, the customer pays for each of them
+• And the money for the risk of death is not returned"
+What is an additional payment?,"• The additional payment consists in buying some fund units at a given time
+• It is recommended that this operation be performed when the fund unit is cheap (has a small value)
+• Making an additional payment is an advantage specific to investment products
+• Additional payment, in the client's language:
+• If you want to buy Euros, when is it good to do it, when is the price low or high?
+• It is the same with additional payments
+• The best thing the customer can do when the unit is cheap is to make an additional payment
+• And the worst thing is to panic and withdraw your money"
+Who and how determines the value of the fund unit?,"• The daily value of the fund unit is set by the investment manager of the insurance company (can be internal or external)
+• The value of a fund unit is obtained by dividing the value of the managed fund by the total number of fund units, related to the entire client portfolio
+• The daily value of a fund unit is posted on the investment manager's website and the insurer's website"
+What is fund allocation?,"• Fund allocation consists in determining the percentages of investment premium allocation in each of the three funds
+• Example:
+• 50% in the high risk fund
+• 30% in the medium risk fund
+• 20% in the low risk fund
+• Fund allocation can change at any time
+• Each insurer offers 1 or 2 free fund allocation changes each year"
+How much money can I lose?,"• Please note that for the duration of the contract, you only lose money if you cancel the policy when the units are cheap
+• If you mean when the policy matures, there is no answer to this question
+• Only on the day the policy matures will you know how much money you have in your account"
+What risks does the unit linked policy cover?,"• The unit linked policy covers the risk of death from any cause
+• There are two ways of calculating the allowance paid in case of death:
+• The sum between the sum assured at death and the account value at the date of death
+• The maximum between the sum assured on death and the account value on the date of death"
+How do you present the unit inked policy?,"• If you are willing to take a risk, you can invest some of your savings in the unit linked policy
+• The insurer will invest your money in the funds you choose - riskier or less risky - and at the maturity of the policy you will receive the amount resulting from the investments
+• You can reduce the investment risk through a long investment duration of over 20 years
+• You will also be able to invest any additional, unforeseen savings that appear during the contract
+• To the question ""What do you advise me to do?"" reply:
+• I cannot decide on your money
+• I present you the advantages and disadvantages of the product, but the decision is yours
+• Present the product in such a way that the customer understands its advantages but at the same time can never blame you for having misinformed him
+• Send him an e-mail with the conclusions; and then archive the email"
+What return can I get?,"• You can access the website of insurer X, where you will find the evolution of each fund, from its creation to the present
+• Please keep in mind that the past is no guarantee of the future
+• In the field of investments, we are talking about forecasts, not certainties"
+How can unit linked policy performance be optimized?,"• There are four methods of optimizing unit linked policy performance:
+• Choosing a contract duration of at least 20 years, to reduce the investment risk
+• Making additional payments when fund units are cheap
+• Changing the fund allocation
+• Buying a policy with the minimum staggered premium accepted by the insurer
+• Making additional payments and changing the allocation of funds presuppose that the client is ""in phase"" for the entire duration of the contract
+• Through these levers he can manage his investment
+• Choosing a long term and a small premium are choices that are made only once, when the policy is issued"
+What happens to the money paid by the customer for the unit linked policy?,"• A part of the insurance premium is spent (risk fund, commissions, medical tests, correspondence, prints, FGA tax), and a part is invested in investment funds
+• The investment premium is used to buy fund units"

+• What is your salary?
+• Or the alternative: in what range are your incomes?
+• How old are you?
+• What amount would the family need in case of death?
+• How much do you want to invest, annually?
+• Or the alternative: what amount are you willing to risk, annually, placing the money in an investment?
+• Pay attention to the following aspect:
+• Your interest – a high regular premium, which generates a high commission, and the client's interest – a low regular premium and additional payments – can collide
+• What do you choose?
+• Explain to the client that the triple ""term of over 20 years - minimum staggered premium - additional payments"" can optimize the return on investment"
+What is a unit linked policy?,"• Unit linked is a life insurance with an investment component
+• The specificity of this policy consists in a higher expected return
+• To benefit from this advantage, the insured accepts to assume the investment risk"
+What does superior expected return mean?,"• A policy with a higher expected return refers to the fact that the customer expects, for the same money paid and over the same period of time, to receive a larger amount of money at the maturity of the policy than if he had bought a traditional policy, so guaranteed
+• If you are an honest man, do not present simulation predictions as guarantees, but as what they are: predictions
+• The reality can be more beautiful or uglier than the predictions (see the crisis of 2008-2010...)
+• Attention: this is the expected return, and not guaranteed!
+• Replace ""you will receive"" with ""you may receive"""
+What is the effect of buying a policy with the minimum staggered premium?,"• The minimum tiered premium offers the advantage of minimizing expenses
+• The customer will be able to benefit from the flexibility of the unit linked policy, being able to make additional payments
+• Attention:
+• The disadvantage of this choice is the very low death protection, since the minimum installment premium corresponds to the minimum sum insured"
+How is account value calculated?,"• The account value is calculated by multiplying the number of fund units by the value of one fund unit
+• Explain to the client that with investments of this type fluctuations are natural and not to panic
+• ""He who cannot control his emotions will not be able to control his money"" (Warren Buffett)
+• The value of the account fluctuates daily, depending mainly on the fluctuation of the value of a fund unit"
+What amount does the insurer pay in case of termination of the unit linked policy?,"• In the event of policy termination, the insurer will sell all existing fund units in the customer's account
+• The penalty percentage specified in the contract will be applied to the resulting value, and the resulting amount will be paid to the client
+• Instead of canceling the policy, a partial withdrawal can be made if the client's family urgently needs money
+• The worst time to cancel the policy is when the units are cheap
+• It is like selling the currency you have saved exactly when the Euro is the cheapest
+• You will obviously lose"
+What are the advantages of unit linked compared to other investment instruments?,"• Ease of investing; once you've taken out the policy, you essentially have to pay the premiums, and that's it
+• Death protection
+• Investment discipline; the insurer communicates the due dates to you, which prompts you to invest rhythmically as recommended by the specialists
+• Continuity of the investment, including in case of disability, if you have purchased the exemption clause from paying premiums in case of disability"
+Which are the most profitable and which are the safest assets?,"• The assets that can bring the highest return are also those that can generate the biggest loss
+• Show the client this chart so they can set realistic expectations
+• High gain and safety at the same time,... not yet invented
+• In the ""low risk - low gain"" area are the assets in which traditional insurance capitals are invested

+What happens to the unit linked policy if premiums are waived?,"• Risk premiums and policy administration costs will continue to be deducted from the account value
+• The number of fund units will decrease over time
+• And during the period in which the payment of premiums was waived, the client can make additional payments
+• It is an advantage worth considering
+• With a traditional insurance, in the case of waiving the payment of premiums, the insured sums decrease
+• With unit linked, in the case of waiving the payment of premiums, the sum assured on death remains the same"
+What can I do if I see that I'm losing money?,"• You are probably referring to the fact that the value of the units decreases, correct?
+• In this case you don't have to do anything; simply
+• On the contrary, if you have an amount of money available, this is the right time to invest
+• Please note that you only lose money if you cancel the policy when the units are cheap
+• Panic is the number 1 enemy of investors"
+How is the death benefit calculated on a unit linked policy?,"• The insured amount in case of death is 5,000 lei
+• On the date of death, the value of the account is 38,467.82 lei
+• Beneficiaries upon death will receive a total allowance in the amount of:
+• In the ""sum"" option: 5,000 + 38,467.82 = 43,467.82 lei
+• In the ""maximum"" version: 38,467.82 lei"
+What is the assumption of investment risk?,"• By assuming the investment risk, the client understands and accepts the fact that it is possible that at the maturity of the policy he will receive less money than he paid"

+• If the insurance continued, unchanged, being paid by the insurer, what would you say?"
+Can the insured sums be changed in the additional clauses?,"• In some clauses, the insured amounts can be changed
+• This can usually be done on the policy anniversary, on application, and obviously with the insurer's agreement

+• If he notices a deterioration in his health, the insurer will most likely refuse to increase the sums insured"
+What information do you require to offer the additional clauses?,"• Start the discussion from protection needs, i.e. from the cost of treatment in serious situations and continue with medium risks
+• If you go with the average risks, the client will say that he will always find a few hundred lei for some medicine...
+• Avoid price discussion at this stage"
+How do I know the insurer will compensate me correctly?,"• The insurer concludes a contract with you
+• That contract must be respected
+• Since Romanian insurers pay almost 4 million Euro per day in the form of indemnities and compensations, it means that they respect their contracts"

+• It is possible for the insurer to accept the reinstatement of the additional clauses, by paying the outstanding premiums and completing a new medical questionnaire

+What risks do the additional clauses cover?,"• Additional clauses cover two categories of risks:
+• Major risks, which can affect the financial stability of the family by depleting savings and/or reducing income
+• Average risks, which can affect family savings
+• Major risks, respectively medium risks, refer to the financial impact they can have, in terms of the cost of treatment to restore health
+• Sometimes average risks, such as a fracture or surgery of medium difficulty, could be covered from family savings
+• But the major risks, which lead to the disappearance of income and / or the sudden increase in expenses, cannot be covered from the family's savings
+• For a family to overcome the financial problems generated by a major risk, a source of money is needed: and this is life insurance
+• It is important that the risks are covered in this order: major and then medium, especially in the situation where the client does not have the money to buy all the clauses"
