endowment policy


Explanation:
Endowment policies are modifications of whole life. Like whole life, part of the premium goes to build up a cash value fund. An endowment policy generally has a higher premium than a whole life policy for the same amount of insurance because more of the premium is devoted to building cash value. The endowment is designed to terminate and pay out the cash amount at a designated time, such as after a prescribed number of years (for example, 20 year endowment, 30 year endowment) or at a specific age (for example, endowment at 60, endowment at 65).

OR

An endowment policy has all of the same elements as a regular whole life policy. Specifically, it pays the policy's face amount if the insured dies during the endowment period, or it pays the face amount to the insured if he or she survives to the end of the endowment period. When the premium period is ended, the endowment matures on the maturity date and pays out the face amount.
