Permanent Life Insurance

Permanent Life Insurance

The basic types of permanent insurance are whole life, universal life, limited pay.

Whole life coverage

Payment for only 10 year,15 year, 20 year or till 100 available

Whole life insurance provides lifetime death benefit coverage for a level premium in most cases. Premiums are higher than term insurance at younger ages, but as term insurance premiums rise with age at each renewal, the cumulative value of all premiums paid across a life time are roughly equal if policies are maintained until average life expectancy.

Part of the insurance contract stipulates that the policyholder is entitled to a cash value reserve, which is part of the policy and guaranteed by the company. This cash value can be accessed at any time through policy loans and are received income tax free. Policy loans are available until the insured’s death. If there are any unpaid loans upon death, the insurer subtracts the loan amount from the death benefit and pays the remainder to the beneficiary named in the policy.
