Headstart in Life Plan

Protect your child for life

The Headstart in Life Plan provides your children with lasting life insurance protection that’s designed just for them. No matter what obstacles they face or the risks they take, rest assured, they’ll always enjoy life insurance coverage.

Protect them while they’re in perfect health. Later, it may be more difficult and expensive for them to get a policy to meet their needs.

Insurance for Life

  • If you, as the policy owner, die accidentally during the premium paying period, BMO Insurance will pay all remaining premiums and your children will remain protected

Flexible Options for the Future
