An insurance bond (or investment bond) is a single premium life assurance policy for the purposes of investment.
Due to tax laws they are a common form of investment in the UK and some offshore centres.
Traditionally insurance bonds were with-profits policies and were often called with-profit(s) bonds. Since the introduction of unitised insurance funds they have often been marketed as unit-linked bonds or investment bonds.
