Insuranceopedia Explains Maturity Date

When a loan borrower owes money to a financial institution, the maturity date is the day by which they must settle all their accounts and pay off their debts.

Certain insurance policies can be monetized when the policyholder reaches a specific age. The money received on the maturity date is subject to taxes, but the insured may choose to extend the maturity date of their policy as part of a tax planning strategy.
