Paid up policy - In the USA, a life insurance policy where all premiums have been paid. This may be a policy where premiums are paid for a set number of years after which it is deemed paid up although continuing in force. In the UK, this is cancellation of premiums for a life assurance policy during the policy term where, instead of the policyholder applying for the cash value, he/she elects to leave premiums paid to date as a paid up policy which will give reduced benefits at maturity.
