Life insurance is foundational when it comes to planning for your family’s financial security. How will your mortgage be paid off? Will the kids be able to go to college? Will your spouse be able to make it financially without my income? These are just some of the questions we can help you answer.
Mortgage protection insurance (MPI) is a type of life insurance designed to pay off your mortgage if you were to pass away — and some policies also cover mortgage payments (usually for a limited period of time) if you become disabled.
Note: Don’t confuse MPI with private mortgage insurance (PMI), which protects the lender if you default on the loan. With PMI, your family would still owe the balance of the loan if you passed away.
Term life is usually the least costly life insurance available because it offers a death benefit for a restricted time and doesn’t have a cash value component like permanent insurance has.
Whole life insurance provides a death benefit to your heirs as well as a cash value component you can access for other expenses. However, it's typically more costly than term life insurance.
Indexed universal life (IUL) insurance is a type of permanent life insurance, meaning it has a cash value component coupled with a death benefit. The money in a policyholder's cash value account can earn interest by tracking a stock market index selected by the insurer, such as the Nasdaq-100 or the S&P 500.
The interest rate derived from the equity index account can fluctuate, the policy does offer an interest rate guarantee, which limits your losses. It also may cap your gains.
