The type of Life Insurance policy that provides protection only for a specified period of time. A common policy period would be one year, five years, 10 years, or until the insured reaches age 65 or 70. It does not build up any of the non-forfeiture values associated with Whole Life policies. Contrast with Whole Life Insurance.
