Stock whole life insurance firms Stock term life insurance organizations are profit-making firms owned by stockholders who are not necessarily insurance policyholders. plan s are usually sold as "nonparticipating" term life insurance, meaning they do not earn policy dividends for insurance policyholders. Mutual companies Mutual companies are owned by the insurance policyholders. Mutual firms sell "participating" policy which means that dividends may be paid to the insurance policyholder. These dividends are a result of organizations charging too high a premium rate for a particular year. Investment earnings of firms may be higher than expected or companies expenses could be less than planned. Dividends may be taken as cash, applied to the following year's premium, used to purchase paid-up additions to the plan , or left to accumulate interest to add to the cash value of the policy .
