Family is important; that’s why it’s best to get expert advice to help protect what matters, when it matters!
Term assurance can protect your family from the financial implications of a personal tragedy and is particularly important if you have young children or dependents. It can be used to cover a mortgage, other loan or to ensure that your family is protected from the effects of having to repay a debt after the main breadwinner has passed away.
Cover is usually on a level or decreasing basis.
Level Term Assurance
This will give you the same amount of cover throughout the life of the policy and will pay out that amount if you make a successful claim.
Decreasing Term Assurance
This is sometimes known as Mortgage Term Assurance – and will decrease over the term, usually to match your decreasing mortgage amount and pay out the current amount when a successful claim is made.
Family Income Benefit
This is a Life Assurance plan that pays a tax-free monthly income rather than a lump sum. This makes it easier to pay for the monthly costs of running your household and covering school fees.

A Critical Illness plan is designed to pay out a lump sum on the diagnosis of certain specified illnesses. It is often ‘bolted on’ to a life assurance policy as an additional benefit but can also be a standalone plan.
This type of plan is designed for those individuals or families whom want a lump sum if they are diagnosed with a serious illness. In the event of your diagnosis, money paid out from a Critical Illness policy could be used to help maintain your standard of living, pay off your mortgage and, if needed, pay for private healthcare.
The quality of cover and the illnesses covered can vary significantly between different providers.

We all insure our cars and homes but we don’t always look after what pays for it all: our earnings.
An Income Protection plan is designed to pay out a regular income in the event you are unable to work due to an accident or illness. These types of plans continue to pay out an income as long as you are unable to return to work up until the end date of the policy (typically your normal retirement age).
This type of plan is quite often seen as the foundation of any financial planning as it is likely that other plans will have to be given up if you do not have sufficient income coming into the household.
A Mortgage Payment Protection plan is designed to ensure that you are able to continue to make your mortgage (and other related expenditure) payments in the event of accident, sickness or unemployment. These plans usually pay benefits for up to two years.
You should think carefully about how you would cover your monthly mortgage payments and other outgoings if you couldn’t work.
