In May 2020, The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America introduced a new feature in its Guardian's level term life insurance, a charitable benefit rider that is built into the policy. This rider allows policyholders to donate a portion of their life insurance proceeds to a charity of their choice. It enables them to support causes they care about while still providing for their loved ones.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the market. Many businesses realized the importance of offering comprehensive employee benefits to attract and retain top talent, and group-level term insurance is becoming an increasingly popular option. With more companies offering this benefit, the demand for group-level term insurance policies is also increasing, leading to growth in the market.
