Whole life insurance - shuushinhoken (English) straight life insurance
A type of death insurance in life insurance where the insured has no set period, i.e. the period is considered to be the entire life of the insured, and at the time of death, the insurance money is paid to the surviving family members or specific related parties (beneficiaries). This corresponds to term insurance, which provides coverage for a limited period of time. In most cases, the purpose of this insurance is to provide security for the living of surviving family members, etc. It is not very common in Japan.
