What does USD life insurance cost?

Insurance premiums vary depending on your age, the type of coverage, the amount of coverage, your insurance history, and other factors. The process of determining the premium is known as underwriting. Certain underwriting places a heavy weight on the country risk, in this case South Africa, i.e. does the fact that one lives in this country increase the risk that you could die.

South African country risk will thus not be well understood by foreign insurers which could influence the price dramatically. South African life insurers would price the country risk much better due to their insight and claims experience.
