Corebridge Financial burial insurance
Corebridge Financial is the former AIG US life business, writing on American General Life paper. If you have been quoted AIG, this is the same underwriter.
Rating read from AM Best on 2 September 2026. AM Best calls A excellent: a strong ability to meet obligations to policyholders. How we check ratings.
The verdict
One of the more forgiving A rated underwriters, which makes it genuinely useful for a health history that has caused problems elsewhere. The rating is currently under review with a developing outlook, which is worth knowing without being a reason to avoid it.
We do not represent Corebridge Financial
This is an editorial review. We hold no appointment here and earn nothing if you buy one, which is exactly why we can be straight about it. The carriers we can actually write are listed here.
What is good and what is not
In its favour
- Accepts health histories that stop applications at stricter carriers
- Large, well capitalised business
- Full range of face amounts
Against it
- Rating carries an under review status with a developing outlook
- Brand is new and unfamiliar to the age group buying these policies
- Not the cheapest for a clean, healthy applicant
How it treats your health
Simplified issue with a broader appetite than the strictest carriers, useful after a decline.
What it actually sells
Simplified issue whole life on American General Life paper, in level and graded tiers.
The waiting period
No waiting period on the level tier. Graded tiers carry the usual two year reduced benefit.
This is the single most misunderstood thing in this market, and it is where most people get sold the wrong policy. Our full explanation is in burial insurance with no waiting period.
What moves the price
Age, sex, tobacco, face amount, state and tier.
Why there is no price on this page
We hold no rate tables, so any premium printed here would be invented. On a licensed site that is a compliance problem rather than a helpful touch. The honest number comes from running your age, state, health answers and coverage amount against the 25+ companies the agency can write, which takes a few minutes.
See what Corebridge Financial would actually cost you
Six questions, about a minute. We run them across every company we can write, including this one where possible, and come back with real prices. A typical burial runs $15,395 once the cemetery is included, so that is the number worth covering.

Questions people ask about Corebridge Financial
Is Corebridge the same as AIG?
It is the business AIG spun out. Policies from both brands are issued by American General Life, so the underwriter and the rating are the same.
