Traded endowment policy (Tep)Another name for Second-Hand Endowment Policy (Shep).Traded endowment policy (Tep) Similar MatchesEndowment mortgageEndowment mortgageAn interest-only mortgage ultimately repaid by the proceeds of an endowment assurance policy which is assigned to the lender providing the mortgage. The policyholder pays the lender's interest only, for the term of the mortgage. The sum assured, which is payable on maturity or prior death of the policyholder, is used to repay the mortgage. Policies are usually with profits (or low cost endowment), unit linked or unitised with profits and sometimes this provides some additional capital for the policyholder after the lender has been repaid. EndowmentEndowmentThe amount of something that a person or country simply has, rather than their having somehow to acquire it. In the H-O Model of trade theory, endowments refer to primary factors of production, ignoring the fact that some of them -- especially capital and skill -- are deliberately accumulated. Low cost endowmentLow cost endowmentDesigned to accumulate the sum needed to pay after a given period, usually for the purpose of paying off a mortgage. However there are no guarantees and investors may have to increase their premiums to build up enough to pay off their mortgage. Non profit endowmentNon profit endowmentThis type of endowment guarantees repayment of the loan. There are no annual or final bonuses and you generally have no chance of a cash surplus on maturity. Essentially, there is no benefit other than life cover which is eaqual to the value of the mortgage you have ttaken out. This is seen as an inefficient method of saving the money to pay back and is therefore rarely recommended as a method of repaying a mortgage. Endowment insuranceEndowment insuranceA cash value life insurance policy with a fixed term. Premiums are applied to give life insurance cover for the face amount and at the end of the term the cash value will equate to the face amount and be payable.
