Permanent Life Insurance


Whole life, interest sensitive whole life and universal life insurance are types of permanent life insurance. Permanent insurance is designed to meet long term life insurance needs of an individual or party. The premiums are usually level throughout the insured's life. The policy builds-up a cash value which can be borrowed against and is available as a lump sum on cashing in the policy. Permanent life insurance protects your family in the event of a premature death, builds value on a tax-deferred basis, and is an effective estate planning vehicle which, if structured properly, allows you to pass assets to your beneficiaries without incurring income or federal estate tax.
