Above all, it depends on your needs. For instance, if you need insurance coverage for a specified period of time only, e.g. 30 years, then a term insurance may be the cheapest option for this purpose. However, there will be zero surrender cash value thereafter. In this situation, is this the most cost effective option?
Well, to answer your question in a responsible manner, we will need to understand your needs first. Thereafter, we will determine your goals and to use insurance as a risk management tool to mitigate risks that you are unwilling or unable to tolerate on your own.
