!!Changes to comply with anti-money laundering legislation !We are introducing changes to our forms effective February 1, 2014 to comply with updates to anti-money laundering legislation. This will affect some insurance and investment products.
Manulife is complying with this legislation across all of our business areas and there are updates to forms depending on the product. Here’s what you need to know about this change.
About this legislation The Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act’s goal is to improve the detection and deterrence of money laundering and terrorist financing and to facilitate investigation and prosecution. Financial services companies and advisors are required to establish record keeping and client identification procedures and report suspicious transactions.
! Individual Insurance changes For universal life and Performax Gold policies, you will need to complete a new form NNC0012E beginning February 1, 2014.
▪ NNC0012E Additional requirements for intended use and identity verification for Individual Insurance policies
This is an interim form. We will be updating our forms so that you will not need to complete a separate form in the future. We will let you know when that has been done.
The form is needed for new policies as well as certain policy changes such as term conversions or ownership transfers that are issued or received on or after February 1, 2014.
If you are not able to include the form when you send in an application or change request for those products, we will send the form to you to complete as a delivery requirement. If you receive a ‘Not in Good Order’ communication about anti-money laundering requirements, it’s important to respond immediately; your client’s ability to make policy transactions or request information may be limited until we receive the form with the required information. (Continued on next page)
The interim NNC0012E form is now included with our product pages and the other key forms shown below. Please note our Diamond View new business illustration system does not yet have the new version of our product pages which include the NNC0012E form but you can print the form off Repsource in the meantime.
NN7006E Signature and disclosure booklet for electronic applicationsNN1558E Identifying owners of Individual Insurance policiesNN1547E Performax Gold Product PageNN1539E Limited Pay UL Product PageNN0780E InnoVision Product PageNN0902E Security UL Product PageNN1588E UltraVision Product Page
If you have questions, please contact us as usual.
! Manulife Investments changes When you submit a new Non-registered application – Manulife Investments – signed on or after February 1, 2014, you will need to complete the new interim form below which includes questions related to the new anti-money laundering requirements:
▪ Additional requirement for Non-registered Applications Purpose and Intended use(s) (login required)
▪ Annuity Applications - Additional requirement for Non-registered Annuity Applications Purpose and Intended use(s) (login required)
If you are not able to include this form when you send in an application, we will send you a 'missing information request' asking for the required information to complete our file. You can phone in the information, rather than mail it. For an Annuity, this outstanding information will delay the application process.
We will be updating the Applications below in July 2014 to incorporate the new questions so that you will not need to complete a separate form. We will update you when that has been done.

National Bank applications updated In order to remain compliant with the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) regarding the disclosure of regulatory information, you are required to change the way you handle financing products with more than one applicant. Applicants will choose either:
Separate Disclosure x Application default. x Should there be more than one applicant, both applicants will now receive all
regulatory information including statement of accounts and different notices.
Single Disclosure x Must be selected on the application form if the client(s) prefer to receive
mailings to only the primary applicant. National Bank applications have been updated with the new disclosure options, effective March 31, 2014. Updated electronic-only applications include CSV Line of Credit (18796-012 (2014-03-15)). Updated print applications include the following:
x Credit application principal and interest investment term loans (form 19819-012 (2014-03-15))
x Credit application interest-only investment lines of credit (form 19820-012 (2014-03-15))

Build momentum with living benefits changes Rate change in effect April 4 As a follow-up to the living benefits temporary premium reductions launched earlier this year, Canada LifeTM is implementing rate changes across the living benefits product portfolio effective April 4. All rate changes are now included in the software updates and as a result, this will eliminate the temporary manual premium reductions introduced in January. For some cells affected by this rate change, the new rate is better than the premium reduction program introduced in January; however, there are cells in which the new rates are less favourable. Effective on April 4, for all new policies going forward, there is an exciting change that removes the ratings on return-of-premium withdrawal, return-of-premium at expiry and return-of premium at withdrawal or expiry (year 15, year 20 and age 65) riders on critical illness insurance policies. These changes reflect Canada Life’s ongoing commitment to maintaining a competitive and comprehensive product shelf that is relevant to you and your clients. Critical illness insurance rate changes The following products will have new rates effective April 4, 2014.
x Level premium term to 75 x Permanent level premium, paid up at 100 x Permanent level premium, paid up in 15 years x 10 year renewable term to 75, convertible to 65 x Level premium term to 75, paid up at 65
The paid-up critical illness insurance using return of premium calculator will also be updated to reflect these rate changes. These changes re-establish Canada Life’s competitive position versus Sun Life and Industrial Alliance within the 18-49-year-old market, particularly for cases sold with return-of-premium riders. Well over half Canada Life cases sold include a return-of-premium rider. View specific rate change details. Critical illness return-of-premium riders Effective April 4, 2014, for all new issues going forward, Canada Life will no longer be rating the return-of-premium at withdrawal, return-of-premium at expiry and return-of-premium at withdrawal or expiry (year 15, year 20 and age 65) riders. This change is effective for all April 2014 rate series critical illness insurance plans with the exception of:
x 10-year renewable term to 75, convertible to 65 policies View full details.
March 25, 2014
Disability insurance rate changes Rate changes for occupation classes 4A and 3A will be effective April 4 within the following personal non-cancellable products.
x Lifestyle protection plan These rate changes re-establish Canada Life’s competitive position for occupation classes 4A and 3A. Canada Life has always maintained a strong competitive position in the 2A, A and B markets. More details Full rate change details and transition rules are available to help you talk to clients about these changes. Software Canada Life Updated illustration software, April 4 – You can get your updated Zoom 14.3 software via ConcourseTM on Canada Life RepNetTM, Internet download or CD, starting April 4. It includes new critical illness and disability insurance rates. For more information, contact your MGA, your branch office or your local regional marketing centre.
