Webinar | A Strategic Approach to Insurance

Written by Trever Helmstead, CFA, CFP® | Mar 24, 2021 1:30:00 PM

Make no mistake: insurance coverage is an investment, one that most people can’t afford to overlook. But studies have found that only 59% of Americans have some form of life insurance, and nearly half of those 59% are underinsured by an average of $200,0001 . Without adequate insurance coverage, your financial picture may be incomplete.


On February 12th, we hosted a webinar on how to take a strategic approach to your insurance coverage.

  • How to identify gaps in your insurance coverage
  • How to determine if you’re paying the right amount for appropriate coverage
  • Why insurance is an important part of financial planning
