Whole Life Insurance
Whole life insurance offers lifelong security, guaranteeing your loved ones are cared for and your financial legacy endures.
What is Whole Life Insurance?
Whole Life Insurance is a type of permanent life insurance that provides coverage for your entire lifetime, as long as you pay the premiums. Unlike term life insurance, which offers coverage for a specified term, whole life insurance offers both a death benefit and a cash value component. This means that a portion of your premium payments goes into a savings or investment account, which grows over time and can be accessed during your lifetime.
How Does It Work?
Lifetime Coverage
Whole Life Insurance provides coverage for the entire lifetime of the policyholder. As long as premiums are paid, the policy remains in force, and a death benefit is guaranteed to be paid to the beneficiaries upon the policyholder's passing.
Cash Value Accumulation
Whole Life policies have a cash value component that grows over time. A portion of each premium payment is allocated to this cash value, which can be accessed by the policyholder during their lifetime through loans or withdrawals. The cash value has the potential to grow tax-deferred.
Premiums and Benefits
Premiums for Whole Life Insurance are typically higher than those for term life insurance, but they remain level throughout the policyholder's life. In return, the policyholder enjoys the assurance of lifelong coverage and the accumulation of cash value. The death benefit is paid to the beneficiaries tax-free and can be used for various purposes, such as covering final expenses, income replacement, or estate planning.
What It Provides
Lifetime Coverage

Death Benefit

Cash Value Growth
Whole life insurance includes a cash value component that accumulates over time. This cash value can be borrowed against or withdrawn to supplement retirement income, pay for education, or cover unexpected expenses.
Guaranteed Premiums
The premiums for whole life insurance are typically level and guaranteed, meaning they won't increase as you age, making it easier to budget for your insurance needs.
