Frequently Asked Questions

What is Life Insurance and why do I need it?

Life insurance provides a financial safety net for your loved ones if you were to pass away. It can help cover mortgage payments, living expenses or other financial commitments, giving your family peace of mind during a difficult time. We’ll help you understand the right level of cover for your circumstances.

Critical Illness Insurance pays out a tax-free lump sum if you are diagnosed with a serious illness covered by your policy, such as cancer, heart attack or stroke. This can help cover medical costs, daily living expenses or debts while you focus on recovery. We’ll explain which illnesses are covered and help tailor a policy to your needs.

It depends on the insurer and your individual circumstances. Some pre-existing conditions may be excluded, or premiums may be adjusted to reflect the additional risk. We’ll review your health and work situation, explain any limitations or loadings and help you find a policy that provides the best possible protection for your needs.
