Helping you repay a debt, like a mortgage and credit cards, or provide a legacy for your friends and family
Term insurance gives you life cover over a pre-agreed period of time. If you die during this period, your policy pays out a lump sum. This type of cover is useful for providing financial security for your dependents.
You may not think you need as much life insurance once you’ve retired or paid off your mortgage. But the need for cover doesn’t end. Whole-of-life insurance is cover that will pay out when you die, no matter what your age is.
Critical illness cover can help minimise the financial impact on you and your family if you become critically ill. Being diagnosed with a critical illness can affect anyone at any age, strike at any time and can turn lives upside down.
How would you pay the bills if you were sick or injured and couldn’t work?
Being unable to work can quickly turn your world upside down. If you couldn’t work due to an accident, sickness or redundancy, you may need to support yourself financially for a long period of time.
While the financial benefits are usually the main reason why people choose to protect their income, income protection products frequently come with a wide range of added value support. This type of support – for both the employer and employee – usually comes as part of the policy and doesn’t cost anything extra.
