What is life insurance?
Life insurance is designed to offer a financial safety net for the people you care about most after you're gone. In simple terms, this is how it functions: you make regular premium payments, and in return, the insurance provider guarantees a lump-sum payout to your designated beneficiaries upon your passing.
Selecting life insurance coverage
Young professionals, busy families, retirees, business owners — no matter where you are in life, thinking about your short- or long-term financial goals often comes with questions. For some, life insurance may be a simple answer.
Types of life insurance

Term life insurance
Provides coverage for a specific period of time without increasing cost and provides a death benefit as long as you keep paying premiums until the policy term expires¹.

Whole life insurance
Lasts your lifetime², which means that as long as you pay your premiums, your beneficiaries will receive a payment based on the amount of your coverage.

Universal life insurance
Like whole life, designed to last your lifetime² as long as you pay your premiums but comes with more options for flexibility while your policy is in effect.

You can choose a term or permanent (whole or universal) life insurance policy to address your own financial and personal situation.
Term life insurance
May be ideal for you if:

- You want to leave an inheritance or money for funeral costs or other final expenses.
Permanent life insurance
May be ideal for you if:
- You have a lifelong dependent, such as a child with disabilities.
- You want to leave a legacy for your heirs to help pay estate or inheritance taxes.
- You want the option of using the available cash value³ to help:
- Pay for large purchases or settle expensive debts
- Pay medical bills during an illness
- Save or pay for college
- Provide financial support to loved ones in a time of need, or
