The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, also known as MetLife, is a financial services company that sells financial products to individuals as well as businesses. An individual can establish a life insurance policy with MetLife. The MetLife website explains that the life insurance policy is a dividend-paying policy that builds cash value over time and guarantees the death benefit of the policy. Life insurance policies guarantee that loved ones will be taken care of financially when the individual passes away. Periodically checking the value of the policy is recommended so that the status and additional financial accumulation is known.

Review the life insurance policy as well as the value of the policy every few years in order to make sure that the policy is still meeting your needs. The MetLife eForm explains that policies can be adjusted at any time. Changing a life insurance policy is possible, but adequate research must be performed in advance to determine how much the policy premium will increase.
