Protecting your income
It is not just in the event of death that insurance can be invaluable. Falling ill even for a short time can be costly in terms of reduced income. And if you are unable to work for a sustained period, possibly due to an accident or serious illness, then the family's standard of living could suffer severely, just at a time when living expenses are higher.
Fortunately, it is possible to arrange insurance to provide a lump sum or income should you be unable to work due to accident or illness (or even unemployment) that can help tide you over the period.
It is also possible to arrange insurance to provide a lump sum should you be diagnosed with one of a series of 'critical illnesses'. This can be invaluable should you wish to pay off a mortgage or other debts, in order to leave you free to focus on getting better.
In some cases this can be arranged alongside life insurance, in others it can be arranged as a stand-alone benefit.
