life insurers

Mortality risk businesses

Life insurers are companies that sell life insurance—policies that pay beneficiaries when the policyholder dies.

The term distinguishes these firms from property insurers, health insurers, and other insurance providers.

Life insurers assess risk based on age, health, and lifestyle factors.
