Why does this charge appear?

When New York Life processes premium payments for life insurance policies and annuities through their billing system, the charge is transmitted to your bank using the truncated descriptor "NEW YORK LIFE*" because payment networks impose strict character limits on merchant identifiers, often capping them at 22 characters or fewer. The asterisk following the name is a common formatting convention used by insurance billing platforms to separate the company name from an account or policy reference code that may appear alongside it on some statements. If you hold a New York Life policy and see this descriptor on your bank statement, it almost certainly reflects your scheduled monthly premium being collected automatically from your account.
