Almost every broker dealer or wire house the size of Edward Jones has registered representatives that are also licensed life insurance agents. These financial institutions generally have access to several life insurance companies to give you a broad selection to choose from to meet the coverage needs of your family, business or estate.
Edward Jones' motto is "Making Sense of Investing". While many life insurance policies accumulate cash value in a tax friendly fashion and are part of a good financial portfolio, most life insurance policies sold are not investments, but simple protection for the loss of financial resources in the event of death.
Kudos to Edward Jones for recognizing the importance of life insurance and for carrying products to meet that need. However, just as Edward Jones's expertise is in investing, you may find that it takes someone with an expertise in life insurance to find the best life insurance rate for someone with a health condition or other risk factors. It also can help to have the prices of many companies to choose from, to find the lowest price.
