What is Life Insurance?
Life insurance is a financial protection plan that provides a benefit to the nominee or beneficiaries when the insured person passes away, subject to the terms and conditions of the policy.
In return for the coverage, the policyholder pays a premium to the insurance company. The premium and coverage depend on factors such as age, policy type, coverage amount, policy duration, and other applicable details.
Life insurance is particularly useful for people who have financial dependents or long-term responsibilities.
