What is life insurance? Why is this necessary?
Life Insurance is a financial plan that provides financial security related to human life. In simple terms, life insurance is a contract between an individual and an insurance company, in which the individual (insured) regularly saves a premium and the insurance company enters into a legal agreement to give a sum assured and bonus after the death of the insured or a certain period of time.
