In the article History of Insurance, we examined the concept of risk, which is the possibility of loss. For a life insurance policy, however, the element of risk is somewhat different. When an insurance company writes, for example, a homeowners’ policy, it hopes that nothing happens to the property and a claim will never be filed. When an insurance company issues a life policy, it knows that it will someday be faced with paying a claim upon that policy, because every person eventually dies. The basic premise of all life insurance is the same: to provide a benefit to ease the financial burden of the beneficiaries upon the loss of the insured person. This death benefit is universal....

Types of Life Insurance Definition of Life Insurance Insurance is the practice of substituting cost for risk. An individual who buys life insurance is paying the insurance company to assume certain risks, particularly the loss of income associated with unexpected death.

The premiums paid for the insurance policy are invested by the company. Actuaries calculate a life expectancy for each insured, allowing the company to estimate its likely payouts. Given a sufficiently large number of policies sold, premature...

Upon choosing your life insurance, you will be given options which affect how much your agreement costs, how much your beneficiary is paid when you pass away and how long the agreement lasts for. You will also be asked a range of questions about your health, lifestyle and medical history. This is because life insurance companies make money by investing the premiums you pay for your cover, in a bid to make more than they’ll have to pay in claims. Usually, the healthier the policy holder, the less chance of having to pay out for a claim. How do life insurance policies work? So what is a life insurance policy and how do they work? A life insurance policy is a contract with an insurance...
