I want to name my children as beneficiaries, which is fine for many of my accounts. However, some are requiring my husband to be listed as beneficiary. Why?

They usually have a waiver such that the spouse must sign off. The theory is a spouse can never be disinherited. They can always take against a will if the spouse is trying to keep them out of the estate plan.
