Term life insurance
Term life insurance offers:
- Coverage for a specific period of time, like until you reach retirement or your children are grown
- Flexibility to switch to longer term, permanent protection in the future based on policy provisions
Permanent life insurance
If you're looking for dependable protection that lasts a lifetime, you should consider the three types of permanent life insurance: whole, universal and variable universal.
Whole life insurance offers:
- The potential to earn dividends, which can be received in cash, accumulated at interest, used to buy additional life insurance or to help reduce premium payments or pay outstanding loans
- Cash value that increases regardless of market conditions
- Fixed premium payments over time
Universal life insurance offers:
- Flexibility to adjust your plan over time⁴
- Cash value that builds with the security of downside protection
- The ability to balance cash value growth with your preferred risk tolerance
Variable universal life insurance offers:
- The ability to build cash value through market participation
- A wide range of choices in which to invest the policy's cash value
- No limits on upside investment gains or downside losses
