Having adequate life insurance provides you with the peace of mind in knowing that in the event of your death, loved ones will be provided with financial support.
The different types of life insurance available include…
Level term insurance - this type of cover is designed to pay out should the policy holder die during the term of the policy. The payout amount is guaranteed to remain the same throughout the insurance term.
Decreasing term life insurance - the insurance amount made available decreases at the same rate that the mortgage is paid. This type of insurance ensures that in the event of terminal illness or death, a lump sum that can adequately cover the mortgage is made available. For example, if the policy holder has a 25 year mortgage for £125,000 and the policy holder dies 20 years into the mortgage with £10,000 left to pay, then the life insurance would pay that remaining £10,000
Convertible term insurance - this is the same as level term insurance with the added option to revert it to endowment or life insurance.
Renewable term insurance - this option allows you to renew the police on the date it expires without the need of taking a health review.
Index linked term insurance - this policy means the life insurance payout increases each year in relation to the RPI (Retail Price Index).
