Different Types Of Life Insurance Cover

We have a dedicated section on the Life Insurance Cover website detailing the many different types of Life Insurance products. But as a brief overview, here are some of the most common Life Insurance products:

Term Life Insurance – This policy type is probably the most popular and cost-effective. Term Life Insurance provides coverage for a fixed amount of time, for example, the length of a mortgage. It is essential to take into consideration the expiry date, at which time the Life Insurance will cease. If the policy expires after a mortgage has been settled. It could mean that you no longer have Life Insurance protection.

The mortgage is paid, do I still need Life Insurance?

Although the financial requirements of a mortgage might not be a factor anymore. There are still many large financial hurdles which could cause problems in the future. They may include expensive bills such as funeral costs which can worry many people. In this respect, an over 50s life insurance policy might be an attractive option.

What If We Both Work To Pay The Bills?

If you and your partner both contribute equally to the household finances, or if one partner is a stay at home parent. Many people in this scenario find a Joint Life Insurance policy is an attractive solution. This is because any extra costs such as child care might suddenly be a consideration if one partner dies.

In the event of a claim against a Joint Life Insurance, the surviving partner may have the option to either claim for the first individual or defer to protect themselves. Many people who have chosen Joint Life Insurance policy will need to make a claim after the first individual has passed away. This will mean that the surviving partner will need to think about a new Life Insurance policy to protect any dependants for the future. 

Joint Life Insurance policies work well for many couples, as it is a generally cheaper solution than two individual policies.  If a couple split at any time, then the Life Insurance policy can continue if mutually agreed. Or a policy may need to be reviewed to ensure any family members remain protected.

Do I Need A Whole Of Life Insurance Policy?

Whole of Life Insurance – With this policy type the premiums fall due every month for the whole of your life until you die (or reach maximum age depending on the type of Whole Of Life Insurance policy.) The benefit amount you have chosen is fixed, and the amount remains a guaranteed payment to your loved ones when you pass away (subject to terms and conditions).

Monthly premiums for a Whole Of Life Insurance policy are often more expensive and less attractive compared to a Term Life Insurance policy. People with large estates and a looming inheritance tax bill find Whole Of Life Insurance an attractive option. Important factors to take into consideration include ensuring the claim payment is sufficient in line with inflation. Also taking into account your retirement age and checking the small print for any exclusions. At Life Insurance Cover we can help you to compare Life Insurance including all of the Whole Of Life Insurance policies available.

What a Life Insurance Policy Needs To Protect

Working out what you would like to protect, some households use excel or a good old fashioned pen and paper time. Review your monthly outgoings, take everything into account including every income and outgoing. Also include any saving plans, car loans, debts and of course, the crucial living expenses such as a mortgage, utilities and everyday living costs. People often forget that growing children have expensive tastes/hobbies/next new thing. A death of a parent might need a tightening of belts in times of financial difficulties. Still, with sufficient Life Insurance, a surviving parent can ensure the children never go without.
