Which type of life policy offers investment in products such as equities and long-term bonds?

Variable Life
Term Life
Whole Life
Universal Life

The correct answer is: Variable Life

Variable Life insurance is distinct because it combines a death benefit with an investment savings element, where policyholders can allocate their premiums among a variety of investment options, such as equities (stocks) and long-term bonds. This type of policy allows for a degree of investment flexibility, meaning that policyholders can choose how their cash value is invested, potentially leading to higher returns compared to more traditional life insurance policies. While term life insurance primarily provides a death benefit without any cash value accumulation, and whole life insurance ensures guaranteed cash value growth based on a set interest rate, variable life policies offer the opportunity for policyholders to grow their cash value based on the performance of the chosen investments. Universal life insurance also provides flexibility in premium payments and death benefits, but it typically does not allow the same level of direct investment in specific equities or bonds that variable life does. This unique feature of variable life is what makes it a suitable choice for those looking to engage closely with investment opportunities while still obtaining life insurance coverage.
