Capturing Moments of Our Insurance Solutions

With term life insurance, you pay regular premiums for a set period and the policy only pays out if you pass away during this period. You may want to consider a term life policy if you need a large amount of coverage but have a small budget, or if you need to have life insurance for a specific time period. It’s important to know that premiums typically increase the older you get and that certain policies may require a medical examination.

With whole life insurance, there’s no set period. You usually pay regular premiums until you pass away, at which point the policy pays out. Sometimes you have the option to take a lump sum back while you are still alive, but this will reduce the amount paid out when you pass away. This is the most commonly held type of life insurance, as it provides both a savings account as well as a death benefit.

Universal life insurance works in a similar way to whole life insurance, but you have more flexibility about taking money early. You may even borrow money and repay it later; although, if there’s any loan outstanding when you die, the policy’s payout can be significantly affected.
