Variable life insurance
A form of permanent insurance that allows the policyholder to invest a portion of the cash value of the policy in a portfolio of stock, bond and money market investments. Premiums are fixed and a share of them is allocated to the investment portfolio. The policyholder bears the risk from these investments in the form of a cash value and death benefit that fluctuates with the performance of the investment portfolio.
