Definition:

Life insurance is a type of financial product that provides financial security for individuals and their families. In simple terms, when you buy a life insurance policy, you pay regular premiums to the insurance company. In return, if you were to pass away while the policy is in effect, your designated beneficiaries receive a lump sum payment, known as the death benefit, which can help them cover living expenses and financial needs. Life insurance is designed to provide peace of mind and support for loved ones in the event of the policyholder's death. Gross written premium (GWP) is the main indicator of the insurance market. It is the total amount of money that an insurance company collects from policyholders for their insurance coverage before deducting expenses or commissions.
