First Investors Insurance Company History and Information

Most recently, in 2008, the ISP Policy was introduced, which provides permanent life insurance protection with four different premium payment periods.

First Investors Insurance Products

When purchasing life insurance through First Investors you have several products from which to choose. It is recommended that you initially speak with a First Investors representative who can help you to answer questions such as the following, which will better help you determine your life insurance needs:

Do I want long-term life insurance or do I only need it for a period of time?

How much life insurance do I need to provide for my family in the event of my passing?

How much can I afford to pay annually for a life insurance premium?

After answering these questions, you are better equipped to determine which of the following life insurance policies from First Investors best suits your needs.

First Investors Permanent Life Insurance

This type of policy is for people with a long-term need for financial security. It comes with fixed premiums, and you are covered for life as long as you pay your bills. One key feature of this plan is that it also builds cash value that you can use during your lifetime for certain types of expenses such as education.

First Investors Variable Life Insurance

This is another type of permanent life insurance that comes with both traditional death benefits and the option to accumulate cash value. The difference is that you get to decide how much of your premium goes towards your death benefits and how much goes into an account similar to a mutual fund. Two specific First Investors policies of this type are known as:

First Investors Life ISP Choice Policy

First Investors Life Single Premium Variable Policy

First Investors Interest Sensitive Whole Life Insurance

Interest sensitive policies have fixed premiums that remain the same for life as long as your pay your bills. The unique feature of these is that they earn cash value based on an interest rate minimum of 3.50% which is tax-deferred.

First Investors Term Life Insurance

Term life insurance policies are designed for those individuals who only need life insurance for a set amount of time such as, 10, 20, or 30 years. These plans have less expensive premiums, but you will not accumulate any cash value to use during your lifetime. Premiums may also go up if you choose to extend the term of your insurance.
