Whole life insurance

Plan today for your family’s future

If you’re looking for a lifetime of protection, whole life insurance may be the ideal choice for you. As the name suggests, it is insurance designed for your whole life. Some whole life insurance products can build cash value that you may borrow1 against to pay for things like home renovations.

Whole life

Why consider whole life insurance?

Participating whole life insurance (or ‘par’ whole life) can generate dividends2. Insurance contracts normally allow these dividends to be taken in cash, applied to reduce premiums, left to increase cash values or applied to buy additional insurance in the form of a paid-up addition (PUA).

For generations, millions of individuals have turned to whole life insurance to meet their life insurance needs because with whole life, your premiums are fixed for the life of the policy. And as long as your premiums are paid in a timely manner the policy will generally remain in force and cannot be cancelled. In addition, certain whole life products can build cash values on a tax-deferred basis3, which can be used to help fund expenses during your lifetime.

1 Loans can be taken if the certificate is in effect and has a positive cash surrender value. Loans will reduce the death benefit and cash values and may affect how long the certificate is in force. Interest is charged daily at the contractual loan rates. Death benefit payable is net of the outstanding certificate loan amount(s) (loan amount includes accrued interest). If, at any time, the loan amount exceeds the cash value at that time plus the present value of paid-up additional insurance then in force and the amount of dividends on deposit at that time, then the certificate will terminate. Loans may be considered a reportable tax event. You should consider consulting your tax advisor for details on your specific situation.
 
2 Dividends are not guaranteed. Past dividends are not an indicator of future dividend performance. Dividend withdrawals will reduce the death benefit and cash values and may affect how long the insurance contract is in effect.
