podcast with Managing Director Henry Montag discussing the benefits of utilizing life
Insurance as an asset class that can benefit the Insured as well as the beneficiary. Click Here to Listen “I’ve written multiple stories over the past five years for the Wall Street Journal about the impact
of low interest rates on universal life policies. The problem is exacerbated because so many people
underfunded their policies. Of the many consumers I’ve interviewed, most don’t understand how
the policies actually work. Many consumers have long since lost contact with their sales agents.
Many others have written in response to the stories, as the problem is so recurring” –Leslie Scism Senior News Editor,
Money & Investment Section.. The Wall Street Journal
Endorsement from "Life Insurance Policy Crisis" The TOLI Center East is a Life Insurance consulting firm providing performance evaluations and guidance
to the individual owner or in the event of a Trust, guidance to the 'amateur trustee' usually the client's
eldest son or daughter. Our clients are legal and tax advisors to policy owners, Irrevocable Life Insurance
Trust (ILIT) trustees, grantors and beneficiaries, and Family Offices who lack life insurance product and
policy evaluation expertise.

Life Insurance, although a very significant financial tool is most often misunderstood & ignored, resulting
in an unnecessary loss of financial assets which can & should be prevented. I integrate with your current
team of professional advisors and become a valuable resource in dealing with basic & advanced strategies
regarding evaluating and properly maintaining a client's life Insurance portfolio. Learn More About The TOLI Center East Watch my Webinars Henry Montag Honored by myCPE
