Life Insurance: Part of Your Financial Portfolio
Insurance can play a key role in a comprehensive financial plan. In fact, many portfolios may not be complete without it. Consider the following:
- If you were to pass away, would your family have the necessary resources to maintain the lifestyle they’re accustomed to?
- What would happen to the children’s plans for college?
- Could your family afford the mortgage left behind on your home?
- How long would your dependents require support after your passing?
Additionally, life insurance may play an integral role in:
- Retirement planning. The cash value account of permanent life insurance generally grows tax-deferred, and can be used to grow your resources for retirement while also providing a life insurance benefit to your family.
- Business planning. Life insurance may provide the capital necessary to replace and train a key employee whose death could negatively affect business. It may also be used as a business succession tool, helping to transfer ownership of your business according to your will upon your passing.
- Estate planning. Life insurance can be used to establish a trust, define your legacy, set up an annuity, fund a charity of your choice, and much more.
Term vs. Permanent
| Term Life Insurance | Permanent Life Insurance |
| Provides coverage for a set period of time, referred to as the term, generally ranging from 1-30 years. | Offers protection for your entire lifetime, as long as you pay the premiums required to stay in good standing. |
| Should you pass away during the term, your beneficiary will receive the policy’s death benefit. | A portion of each payment is designated to a cash value account; this value will generally grow tax-deferred for the length of the policy. |
| At the end of the term, your coverage may be renewable, or the policy may simply terminate. | You may take loans from the cash value account, but any unpaid loans at the time of death will reduce benefits awarded to your beneficiary |
Different Types of Permanent Life Insurance
There are a number of types of permanent life insurance[1], including:
- Whole Life
You pay a fixed premium for the length of the policy. The death benefit and cash value are predetermined and guaranteed[2].
- Universal Life
You can make premium payments at any point, in any amount, as long as the policy expenses and cost of coverage are met. The cash value account will grow according to the interest rate, which may vary over time.
- Variable Universal Life
You can make premium payments at any point, in any amount, as long as the policy expenses and cost of coverage are met. The death benefit and cash value will fluctuate depending on the performance of the investments in your cash value account.
- Indexed Universal Life
You make premium payments in which a portion is added to the cash value of the policy. The death benefit and cash value will fluctuate depending on the performance of an equity index.
