Life insurance is one of the most important financial decisions you'll ever make, but choosing the right plan can be confusing. Term Insurance or Whole Life Insurance—what’s the difference, and which one is right for you? In this episode of The Policy Project, Sid sits down with Atul Kathuria, Business Head of Life Insurance & Investments at Policybazaar.ae, to break it all down. They discuss coverage, costs, cash value benefits, and the key factors to consider before making your choice. And, of course, they answer your burning questions on securing your financial future.
