What is the most likely reason for MPPI over IPI?

• A. Policy term
• B. Premium affordability
• C. Underwriting restrictions
• D. Provider preference

Answer: (B)

MPPI is designed to cover just the mortgage payments rather than the individual's entire income. Because the benefit is narrower and usually limited to a fixed monthly amount for a defined period, the premium stays comparatively low. This makes MPPI much more affordable for borrowers than a full income protection policy, which would replace a larger portion of income over a longer period and therefore cost more. So, premium affordability is the primary reason someone would choose MPPI over IPI. (Policy term, underwriting restrictions, or provider preference can influence decisions, but they don’t explain the overall cost difference.)
