Term life insurance, also known as pure life insurance, is a type of death benefit that pays the policyholder’s heirs throughout a specified period, i.e., 20,25,30 years.

Key person insurance is a life insurance policy that a company purchases on the life of an owner, a top executive, or another individual considered critical to the business.
Term life insurance has a specified coverage period (term), but can usually be renewed or converted into a permanent policy at the end of the term. Premiums are generally affordable initially but can increase substantially when renewed.
Whole life insurance is a type of permanent insurance that offers life-long coverage combined with a cash-value savings component. This type of policy has higher premiums than term life. Premiums remain constant throughout the policy, and a portion is invested by the company, which becomes the policy’s cash value. Whole life insurance pays a fixed amount upon death.
Universal life insurance is another type of permanent insurance policy that combines term insurance with the ability to earn interest on the cash value, paying a market rate of return. Cash value grows tax-deferred and can be withdrawn or borrowed from the policy. It is more flexible than whole life insurance, allowing you to change your premium payments and death benefits within limits.
Rates for life insurance policies will vary. Women typically pay less than men due to their longer life expectancy, and rates increase with age. Also, smokers pay more than nonsmokers.
