Endowment guarantee is a type of life insurance that pays out to a beneficiary when the policyholder dies or if they have a critical illness. It has an expiration date, and surrendering it before then may decrease the payout. The policyholder can name a beneficiary or the money can go to next of kin. The policy can be surrendered early, but the payout will be prorated and less than the amount paid.
The endowment guarantee is a certain type of life insurance that, in most cases, pays out to a beneficiary when the policyholder dies. Some endowment guarantee policies will also pay if the policyholder has a critical and seriously debilitating illness or an illness from which he will soon die. Unlike other types of life insurance, this policy has an expiration date, and if the policyholder is not dead when the policy expires, they can surrender the term for the value of the policy. The policy can also be surrendered before it expires, but this will usually decrease the amount of money the policyholder receives.
An endowment guarantee policy is primarily life insurance, which means that the value of the policy is paid to a beneficiary when the policyholder dies. The policyholder can name a single beneficiary or, if no one is named, the money can go to next of kin. When this guarantee pays a beneficiary, he pays the value in a lump sum.
As a form of life insurance, endowment insurance generally pays on the death of the policyholder. Some policies, depending on the issuer and the circumstances, may pay out if the policyholder sustains critical injuries or illness. If the policy pays out in these circumstances, the illness or injury usually needs to affect the policyholder’s mind so that he is unable to think reasonably or affect him in such a way that he only has a short time to live. However, unless this is specified in the policy, it will not pay regardless of how sick or injured the holder is.
Unlike most types of life insurance, endowment insurance has an expiration date. Maturity is typically five to 20 years after the policy is taken out, depending on the premium and total value of the policy. When the guarantee reaches maturity, the holder can keep the policy going by paying more money and making it more valuable, or they can trade it in for the value of the policy. Even if the owner is not dead, he can receive money by giving up the guarantee.
If the holder needs money or no longer wants to have the guarantee of the endowment, he can surrender the policy at any time, even before expiration. When the guarantee is released early, the policyholder will not receive the full value of the policy, but will get a prorated amount. However, the owner will usually get less money than he paid on the policy, so early surrender is rare.
