Term insurance usually applies to policies that ensure one’s life, although in some cases other types of policies have similar options. Term insurance pays a benefit if the insured person dies during the time the policy is in effect. Standard terms are 5 and 10 years. Such policies are often selected because the premiums tend to be lower than other types of coverage. In some cases, the companies issuing such policies are less stringent in accepting people, since the time-limit on the policy limits the provider’s chances of ever having to pay a benefit.
