Learn MoreWhat are the different types of life insurance?
There are several different types of life insurance policies available and most fall under two main categories: term life insurance and permanent life insurance. Take a look at some different types to see which might be the best coverage for you.
Term Life Insurance
This is the most affordable type of insurance and lasts a set period of time (called a term) before it expires. This allows you to choose how long you want to be covered. Term starts at 10 years.
Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent life insurance represents a category of several types of life insurance that offer coverage for your entire lifetime. This type is typically more expensive than term life insurance.
Universal Life Insurance
Universal life insurance provides lifetime coverage and can be used as a savings account. This type of insurance often runs higher in cost.
Whole Life Insurance
Whole life insurance is a type of permanent life insurance, which provides a set amount of coverage with a set premium for as long as you live.
Final Expense insurance
Also known as burial insurance, final expense insurance helps cover your end-of-life costs, including funeral expenses, medical bills and any other debt you don’t want to pass on to your family.
