WHAT IS INSURANCE ??
Insurance is a way of buying peace of mind that if you suffer an
unfortunate, unpredictable loss you will receive financial compensation
from the insurer.
This compensation is meant to put you back in the same financial
position you enjoyed before the loss or make a specified benefit
payment
CONTI ..
A life insurance is a long term contract which may mean that for a
number of years, you have to pay a periodic premium to your life
insurance company and it was not 'annually renewable'.
When you take out a life policy, you have to be sure that you would be
able to meet your obligations of premium payments on time and in full.
In certain circumstances, you may not be able to obtain the full value of
your insurance premium paid over the years if you surrender your policy
before its maturity or if you have missed premium payments.
CONTI
Term insurance is used for several reasons, including (and not limited to):
Short term salary coverage.
Cover a debt.
A combination of both types of insurance is normally suggested, with term
being used for the short term and permanent for the long term.
PAYING OF PREMIUMS
Paying for your life insurance policy usually takes two basic forms:
Single Premium: a lump sum is paid at the beginning of the policy. No other
payments are made for the whole duration of the policy. Some policies may
allow you to "top-up" the amount at particular specified intervals during the
policy term.
Periodic Premium: this can be annual or in instalments e.g. monthly or
quarterly. An instalment premium would normally incur charges made to the
policyholder as a result of higher administration for the insurance company.
