What types of life insurance products does John Hancock offer?

Life insurance companies typically offer a wide variety of life insurance options. One of the best ways to save money on life insurance products is to avoid unnecessary coverage. Only purchase life insurance policies and riders you actually need.

Here is a brief description of life insurance options John Hancock offers.

Term Life Insurance - This is the simplest type of life insurance policy. Term life insurance policies are payable if the insured person dies within a specific period of time, such as 5, 10, or 30 years.
Universal Life Insurance - This type of universal life insurance policy guarantees a fixed death benefit and an investment account. The cash value of the investment account will vary depending on the portfolio's performance.
Variable Universal Life Insurance - These types of universal life insurance policies provides the most flexibility when it comes to investing the cash value of a universal life policy in separate accounts with "variable" values.
Indexed Universal Life Insurance - These types of universal life insurance policies allows policyholders to place the cash value of the life insurance policy in a fixed account or an equity index account, such as the S&P 500 or the Nasdaq 100.
