Life insurance covers death by any causes not specifically excluded. That generally means they don't cover suicide. Life insurance covers death by natural causes, i.e a disease.
In general, insurance covers "fortuitous" events: those that are neither planned nor intentional, and life insurance is no different. However, there is typically a provision in life insurance policies that payment will not be denied if the insured dies of suicide after 2 years from the date that the policy was issued. This is called an "incontestibility clause".
Most life insurance policies do not pay out for suicide.

Suicide is usually excluded under a life insurance policy. The suicide exclusion usually states that there is no payout of life insurance proceeds if the death is due to suicide within two years of the puchase of the life insurance policy. In some states, like Colorado, the suicide exclusion is one year.
Banner Life Insurance offer life insurance services. They offer Term Life Insurance which covers a person for a specific time and Universal Life Insurance which covers one for life.
Suicide and life insurance isn't regulated by state law, it is regulated by the insurance company and outlined in the insurance papers.

To the best of my knowledge, In the US all life insurance companies cover suicide after 2 years of in force issue.

Most, if not all, life insurance policies have an exclusion that states that the policy will not pay if the death is ruled a suicide.
I dont think so. Most insurance policies do not cover death by intentional suicide.
