- 14231 POINTSview profileTom SheehanAgency Owner, The Thomas G Sheehan Agency, 27 Glen Road Sandy Hook, CT 06482The "face amount" of a life insurance policy is the original specified death benefit that you purchased at the time you applied for the coverage. This is the amount that will be paid to your beneficiary at the time of your death. If you have some form of permanent Life Insurance (Whole Life, Universal Life, Variable Universal or the like) and have borrowed from the accumulated cash value of the policy, then any outstanding loan balance would be subtracted from the face amount and the balance then paid to your beneficiary.Answered on April 23, 2014flag this answer
