Variable Life Insurance

Variable Life Insurance is a type of permanent life insurance policy that belongs to the broader category of cash value life insurance and is distinguished by its allocation of premiums into separate investment accounts whose values fluctuate based on market performance, thereby linking the policy’s death benefit and cash value directly to the investment returns.
