FAMILY PROTECTION

An individual who has a dependent family may need to  provide for against the loss of earnings due to the death of the main financial contributor. A dependent spouse or partner may not be able to earn enough to support themselves and any depended children. With protection for the family the main contributor can have the peice of mind that their family will be finacially secure if they were to die or lose their income.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

Death is not the only factor to insure against, you must also consider loss of emloyment due to illness or redundancy, this may place a financial burden on the family. Insurance must be taken out that provides regular payments if the event should happen. For every person that dies who is insured there are 14 people who lose their job due to illness or other reasons. This places a greater emphasis on provisions of this sort.

MORTGAGE PROTECTION

A mortgage is usually a large finacial obligation, in the event of death or loss of earnings their may be a difficulty making the repayments, this may place a financial strain of the rest of the family. In the event of interruption, cessation or change of income there may be a significant financial burden placed on the familes resources which may inevitably lead to the loss of the property.
