your insurance to us and use it to secure a loan for the amount you need.
A Life Insurance loan at this bank can usually save you motfey over
other types of loans.
If you now have a loan'against your policy elsewhere and wish to
1

the loan at lower cost, we invite you to come in and talk with uk. We
will give you full information so that you can make comparisons and then
decide what you want to do.
