- Pays only if the policyholder dies during the policy term
- No maturity benefit
- Best for people wanting affordable, large coverage
Whole Life Insurance
- Covers you for life (usually up to 99 or 100 years)
- Offers a maturity benefit or cash value
- Premiums are higher
- Includes an investment/savings component
- Suitable for legacy planning or wealth building
