Graded Premium Whole Life Insurance


Under this type of policy, which is called whole life insurance but is akin to term life, the initial premiums are very low. The premiums then usually increase annually until such time that the premiums reach a specific level stated in the policy (usually between age 70 and 80). At that point, the policy begins to build cash value and the premiums remain level for the remainder of the insured's life. From the policyowner's perspective, a graded premium whole life insurance policy can be considered an annual renewable term policy that automatically converts to level premium whole life insurance at later ages. See also Annual Renewable Premium.
