In other words, insurance company will pay the sum insured if death occurs during the covered period. As cash value is provided, premium for term insurance plan is the lowest among these three types of life insurance.

Whole life insurance offers protection for the Insured until age 100.  It can also be a savings plan to the Insured. During the coverage period, premium will remain unchanged and the accumulated dividend and cash value can provide flexibility when customers are in need of cash.  In case of death of the Insured, insurance company will pay to the beneficiary a benefit based on the sum insured plus accumulated dividend (if any).

Endowment insurance will provide death benefit during the covered period.  Insurance company will pay the beneficiary a benefit based on the sum insured plus accumulated dividend (if any) in case the Insured dies.  If the Insured is still alive at the maturity date of the policy, he/she will also receive maturity value of the policy.
