Life Insurance
Life insurance is the type insurance policy that covers an event that is certain to happen. This type of cover is often referred to as assurance rather than insurance. There are two major types of life assurance; whole life and endowment policy.
1. Whole Life Policy
Whole life policies provide for payment after the death of the insured regardless of when the death occurred. Premiums are usually paid quarterly or annually by the person whose life is insured or by his spouse. The idea is that when the insured dies, someone will benefit from the policy, for example a spouse or a dependent.
