Participating&lt;br /&gt;The policy owner shares with the insurer in some of the risks and rewards associated with the expenses and mortality gains/losses associated with life insurance underwriting. Participating policies entitle the policy owner to a return on investment in the form of dividends.&lt;br /&gt;2. Non-Participating&lt;br /&gt;The policy owner do not share in any of these variables:&lt;br /&gt;a)All of the premiums, benefits, and&lt;br /&gt;b) Values associated with the policy are fixed and guaranteed at the time of policy issue. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Interest rate sensitive policies&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;In interest rate sensitive policies, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;premium rates are based on estimates or assumptions, respecting future claims, investment earnings, and operating expenses. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Since premiums and benefits for traditional whole life products are guaranteed throughout the term of the contract, estimates of future investment earnings must, of necessity, be conservative.&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Adjustable premium whole life&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt; In &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Adjustable premium whole life, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;the sum insured and the premiums are guaranteed for a limited period&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;At the end of that period, investment yields are higher than those prevailing, when the contract was made, one of two things happens: Either&lt;br /&gt;a) The sum insured will be increased without increasing the premium, or&lt;br /&gt;b) The sum insured will be maintained and the premium will be reduced, to reflect the higher interest rate applied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Conversely, if investment yields are lower than anticipated, then the sum insured will be decreased on the same basis, but the policy owner will usually have the option of paying a higher premium, in order to restore the sum insured to its previous level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;I hope this information will help.
