Whole Life Insurance

If you're concerned about market fluctuations and want the security of a guaranteed rate, whole life insurance may be right for you. With whole life, you regularly pay premiums and part of the money is put toward a fixed-rate account that helps to build cash value. So you benefit from guarantees such as insurance protection for your entire lifetime if you continue paying premiums. Plus, the cash value you accumulate is generally placed in fixed-income investments that help provide a moderate rate of return.

Whole life benefits:

  • Cash value builds at a fixed rate of return
  • Potential for dividends with some policies
  • Lifetime coverage with a guaranteed, fixed premium
  • Access to cash value through loans
  • Cash value grows tax-deferred
