MINNEAPOLIS – April 16, 2024 – Financial professionals who sell life insurance policies for Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life) can now use a new tool to create customized, interactive policy proposals.
The tool, Illustrations with Impact, powered by the EnsightTM technology platform, helps financial professionals create strong proposals for their clients.
Designed to accompany and expand on a policy proposal, Illustrations with Impact create full presentations that walk clients through all the ways that fixed index universal life insurance (FIUL) can help secure their financial future. With the click of a button, the tool generates personalized client content, including interactive charts, using value drawn from the details of that client’s policy illustration. The tool also shows the potential over time for accumulation, loans and withdrawals and even a death benefit.
“It’s a powerful way help clients see the positive financial impact in their own life,” said Jason Wellmann, head of life distribution for Allianz Life. “But Illustrations with Impact goes beyond the numbers, instantly putting the proposal into a form that’s easier for the financial professional to explain – and easier for the client to understand.”
The tool pulls from the clients’ information to show how a policy can help address concerns like inflation, taxation, market volatility, and longer life expectancies. It also helps clearly explain signature features of an Allianz Life Pro+® Advantage Fixed Index Universal Life Policy like Index Lock and Auto Lock that can grow the policy’s cash value over time and can help ensure a positive index return in volatile markets.
“Illustrations with Impact helps financial professionals show their clients why they are recommending our life policy,” said Wellmann. “It’s another way we keep adding more value to our relationship with the people who sell our products.” “Allianz has been at the very forefront of the digital transformation shift over the last several years. We are extremely proud to be helping Allianz enable a better sales experience for Allianz producers and advisors,” said Bill Unrue, CEO, Ensight.
