Term Life Insurance
Term insurance provides coverage for a specific period of time. It is often used for needs that may decrease or end over time, such as:
Replacing income during working years
Paying off a mortgage or other debt
Providing for dependent children
Funding future education expenses
Protecting a business during a transition
Term coverage generally has a lower initial premium than permanent coverage, although premiums and features vary by policy.
Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent insurance is designed to remain in effect for life, provided the policy requirements are met. Certain permanent policies may also accumulate cash value.
It may be considered for needs such as:
Providing a long-term death benefit
Creating a legacy for family or charitable causes
Supporting estate-planning objectives
Funding business succession strategies
Addressing lifelong family or dependent needs
Permanent policies can be more complex and may involve higher premiums. We help you understand the guarantees, costs, and potential risks.

For a business owner, life insurance may need to protect more than a household. The death of an owner, partner, or key employee can impact the company’s revenue, operations, and future ownership
Key-person protection
