Group life and disability insurance

Tribal group life insurance

A unique group life insurance offering for tribal members and shareholders.

The loss of a tribal member or shareholder is a time for grief, remembrance and respect. Traditional burial ceremonies are a way to honor the life of a valued friend or loved one, while teaching future generations about the unique customs of your culture.

Symetra group life insurance can help provide financial support to tribal members and shareholders following the death of a loved one.

Because the needs of each tribe are different, every policy we write is exclusive to the membership guidelines set by the tribe, rancheria or pueblo. Our policy provides distinct features such as:

Coverage for all tribal members and shareholders (membership status is determined by the tribe).

Guaranteed issue coverage for all members and shareholders.

Naming the tribe as beneficiary.1

No required waiver of Sovereign Nation immunity.

Flexible age reduction schedules. Benefits are typically subject to standard age reductions, but no age reductions may be quoted with underwriting review and approval.
