There is a trend appearing in the life insurance marketplace.  Life insurance carriers are trying to find ways to get policies into the hands of consumers in a quicker and easier way.  For example, Prudential is piloting a program right now through their bank channel.  It is a simplified issue no exam life insurance policy.  There are no medical exams or tests involved, just a few medical questions.  The policy itself costs a little more, but it may be worth it because it is a simpler policy to get.  Most people do not enjoy the long, drawn-out underwriting process.  The carriers that can provide more accessible life insurance will be the ones that I think will be most successful in the future.
