Life Insurance and Protection
With the right protection in place you can provide for you and your family to prevent worries about your finances.
Do I Need Life Insurance?
Depending on your personal situation, life insurance is highly likely to be advantageous. Life insurance provides financial support to your family in case of the very worst happening, allowing peace of mind for you and the people you care about. Although a certain monetary amount would be paid across a specific term, your family may also be eligible for a lump sum payment (if you are to pass away within a specific short period, for example) which could help with any immediate costs.
There are many different life insurance policies and our experts can help find you the right deal. For example, some life insurance policies may pay out an equal amount every month, no matter what point you pass away into your policy. However, this may not suit your personal circumstances. This is why, if you want to ensure your family is covered in the event of an accident or terminal illness, then contact one of our life insurance experts so you discuss the right policy for you.

pre-agreed level of income until the end of the policy term or until you are able to work again.
Mortgage Protection Insurance
Mortgage protection also known as sickness, accident and unemployment cover. It will give you peace of mind in the knowledge that in the event of redundancy or illness your mortgage payments will be made and your home will be protected.
Most regular mortgages do not have any protection insurance included, it’s important to decide what kind of cover you need. Sickness, accident and unemployment cover insures you against changes in your situation due to redundancy, disability, or illness. Usually payments are made for up to a maximum of 12 months. If you would like to be protected for longer you may want to consider taking out income protection.
