The amount of coverage on a group credit life policy is limited to the insured's total loan value.

• A. The employee's salary
• B. The insured's total loan value
• C. The policy's face amount
• D. The loan-to-value ratio

Answer: (B)

In a group credit life policy, the death benefit is tied to the outstanding loan balance, so the maximum coverage is the borrower's total loan value. This is a decreasing term design: as the borrower makes payments and the loan balance drops, the death benefit also decreases. The purpose is to ensure the loan can be fully paid off if the borrower dies, without providing more benefit than what is owed. Salary has no bearing on the coverage, the policy’s face amount is not used as a general limit in this type of policy, and the loan-to-value ratio is a lending metric, not the method by which credit life benefits are determined.
