Types of Life Insurance Used
Term Life insurance is a type of life insurance that covers a specific period of time, typically 10, 20, or 30 years.
Whole Life insurance is a great product that offers lifetime coverage as long as you make the premium payments. It builds cash value over time.
Return of Premium (ROP) is a term life insurance policy that offers a unique feature. If the policyholder survives the 20 or 30-year term, the insurance carrier refunds the premium paid at the end of the term.
Indexed Universal Life (IUL) is a highly flexible form of permanent life insurance. It offers the potential to build cash value within the policy and may include Living Benefits features. IUL is considered one of the most versatile types of life insurance.
