“20 years of bringing the best to members”
Life and disability insurance is a critical risk management component to consider with every farm operation. Evaluating the type of insurance, its uses, and the correct amount can mean the difference between success and foreclosure. No one understands the importance of planning better than a farmer. It’s the attention you give your soil, your crops, and your livestock that produces a successful tomorrow. Careful planning is the key to your family’s future too. Life and Disability insurance will provide a monetary benefit to your family if you are no longer living or able to perform the farm duties.
After many years of bringing Minnesota Life’s “Credit Life” to our members, GreenStone recognized the customer desires. FCS wanted to expand their members’ options for Life and Disability coverage to include products available from the entire marketplace. This was to ensure GreenStone members were receiving the very best in pricing, guarantees, and benefits.
The old saying “A jack of all trades and a master of none” has never been a trait of GreenStone. With the goal of providing a depth of knowledge and experience through another risk management tool, GreenStone partnered to create FCS LifeExpress. With the amount of knowledge it takes to navigate the life insurance industry, and all the evolving products, GreenStone knew partnering with experts is what members deserve. So twenty years ago, AgriBank, along with the Farm Credit associations and First Resource Group created FCS LifeExpress. FCS LifeExpress is a resource-based service for members to review the insurance marketplace to find the best options for each individual.
Best Pricing, Best Guarantees and Best Benefits tailored to each individual on an easy to read chart, gives members the very best options in the marketplace to review in the privacy of their own home. No pressure… Just the facts in an easy to understand format!
