Types of Policies
A return-of-premium term policy reaches the end of its stated term and the insured is alive. What does the policy pay and what happens to coverage?
Answer and explanation
Answer: A. The return-of-premium feature pays back the premiums shown in the policy's schedule when the insured survives to the end of the term. It is a refund of premium, not a death benefit, and the term coverage expires.Source: NAIC Life Insurance Buyer's Guide — Term insurance: what happens at the end of the term
