Understand the protection goal
Life insurance typically pays a death benefit if the policy terms are met. People may consider it for income replacement, dependents, debt or longer-term planning.
What to remember
- Identify who would rely on the benefit.
- Review policy conditions and exclusions.
- Never interpret a general example as a binding quote.
