Term life insurance
What’s term life insurance?
Term insurance provides a death benefit payment (proceeds to your beneficiaries) if you die during your term coverage (known as the policy term).
Key benefits
Financial protection for your beneficiaries if something happens to you.
Typically lower cost than permanent life insurance products.
The death benefit to your beneficiaries is generally free of federal income tax.
How does term life insurance work?
You pay
You make scheduled annual premium payments.
You're covered for a term
Your coverage lasts a specific number of years, usually between 10 and 30.
They benefit
If you die while the policy is [in-force], your designated beneficiaries receive the death benefit.
Consider term life insurance if:
- Your family relies on your paycheck.
- You’re a stay-at-home parent who provides child care and other valuable family support.
- You’re a business owner who needs coverage to retain key employees, fund a buy-sell agreement, or protect against the impact to your business from the loss of a key employee.
