Types of Life Insurance We Offer
DFSIN offers four premium types of life insurance in Ontario, all of which have different benefits. They include:
Term Life Insurance
Generally considered to be the most affordable life insurance type we offer, term life insurance provides life insurance coverage for a set period, often 10, 20, or 30 years. Individual plans we offer under this umbrella include:
Permanent Life Insurance
Rather than providing you with life insurance for a set duration, like term life insurance, permanent life insurance is designed to provide coverage for the rest of your life. When compared with other policies, this type is more cost-effective over the long term. The permanent life insurance options we offer include:
- Whole Life Guaranteed 10 Pay: This plan provides permanent life insurance with a guaranteed cash surrender value that’s payable for 10 years. It also offers other benefits like reduced paid-up insurance as of the 8th year, and more.
- Whole Life Guaranteed 15 Pay: This plan is ideal for those who want more for their money and offers a generous surrender value scale and can be presented as a refund for premiums. It’s payable for up to 15 years.
- Whole Life Guaranteed 20 Pay: For those looking for a great value for their investment, this plan provides fully guaranteed permanent life insurance at a fixed rate, as well as benefits like eligibility for term insurance conversions without proof of insurance.
- Whole Life Guaranteed to 65: This plan is ideal for those looking for a sound investment and offers paid-up premiums and additional benefits at the age of 65, as well as generous guaranteed cash returns after the 5th year.
- Whole Life Guaranteed to 100: This plan provides paid-up additional benefits from the age of 65 (excluding dismemberment or loss of use, accidental dismemberment or loss of use, and accidental death), as well as reduced paid-up insurance available as of the 8th year.
- Term to 100: This option is considered the most economical permanent insurance and is available as a joint or individual protection. Often used to cover taxes payable at death, it also provides no cash surrender value and the amount and cost of the insurance are guaranteed for life.

Life Insurance that Includes Investment Options
In addition to the life insurance plans above, there are also several that include investment options, enabling our clients to grow their estate while still remaining protected and secure. These life insurance solutions include:
- Participating Life Insurance: This option provides lifetime insurance coverage, as well as opportunities to access cash or grow your estate through the use of flexible, tax-efficient dividend solutions. You’ll also be able to increase your death benefit to deal with inflation and adapt coverage options should your needs change over time. With the participating life insurance plans available from DFSIN, you can decide how long you want to pay your premiums (for 20 years or to age 100) and use dividends to purchase additional life insurance or reduce your annual premium.
- Universal Life Insurance: This is an attractive option for those who want to grow their assets tax-free in a savings fund and also have flexible life insurance coverage. You’ll be able to leave behind a large, tax-free inheritance, as well as reduce the tax burden on your estate. Additionally, those who’ve already maxed out their RRSP and TFSA contributions will be able to invest money into their universal life insurance plan tax-free. You can also use your savings fund to cover premiums in the coming years or increase your insurance amount.
