A recent study has shown that two in three adults in the UK don’t have any life insurance. For the lucky people who own their homes without a mortgage the lack of life insurance shouldn’t cause them much of a headache, but if you, like most homeowners, have a mortgage then life insurance should be at the top of your priority list.
Life insurance is a tricky
subject because when you need it, unfortunately, you will no longer be with us.
But the purpose of life insurance isn’t to look after you, it is to make sure
the people you care about most are looked after once you have passed away and
that should the worst happen to you then being able to help your partner by
clearing the mortgage can help take a lot of stress away from them during, what
will be a difficult time in their life.
It is at this point that I can’t
stress enough, how important it is that when you are considering life insurance
you tell your advisor about every little detail, no matter how small or how
irrelevant you may feel it is, as this will enable them to help you in the best
way possible. Both your advisor and the insurer want you have a pleasant
experience with what is bound to be an unpleasant time, should you ever need to
claim on a life insurance policy, so being upfront and honest with the insurer
will allow this to happen and in turn meaning they are going to pay out
quicker!
