Life insurance for each life stage
Throughout your entire life, there may be a need for life insurance, whether you’re single, retired, or at any stage in between, life insurance should be considered an essential tool in your financial toolbox. As you move through these different stages, your life insurance requirements alter too.
Life is full of surprises – not all of them good
Income replacement is the primary purpose of life insurance, but many policyholders tap into cash-value life insurance for other reasons, such as building a nest egg for retirement, also known as permanent life insurance.
A study1 has revealed that just 27% of consumers are confident of the levels of protection they have in place. Financial pressures can cause a huge strain. Having the right level of protection in place at every life stage is essential to avoid financial exposure. Once protection is in place, it’s worth reviewing it regularly to ensure you have the right cover as your circumstances change over the years.
Single
Life insurance tends to be overlooked by single adults, at all ages. Despite being self-sufficient, without a partner or dependants, there are still options to consider. If you have any mortgage, loans or debt with a co-signer, your death will leave your co-signer responsible for the payments. You also risk leaving end of life expenses to your loved ones.
