Life Insurance protects families from financial hardship by paying out a one-off tax-free lump-sum if the policyholder dies during the term of the policy. The money can be used to pay off mortgages and other outstanding debts as well as providing a source of income for everyday living.
Premiums are paid monthly and the cover is set for a fixed period of time, often for the length of a mortgage or up to the age of retirement. The amount of life insurance cover varies according to how much you can afford and how much cover you think you need to pay off debts and provide day to day income.
The cost of the insurance is affected by various factors including the sum to be insured, existing health conditions, lifestyle issues like smoking and high BMI, age, occupation and any regular dangerous pursuits.
Insurers historically pay 99% of all life insurance claims - when they don’t pay out, it is usually because the policyholder was not truthful on their initial application about an existing health condition or a regular dangerous pursuit which led to their death.

Critical Illness Cover protects families from financial hardship by paying out a one-off lump-sum if the policyholder suffers a serious illness like cancer or a stroke, or a permanent disability caused by injury during the term of the policy. The money can be used to pay for medical treatment or rehabilitation or pay off mortgages and other outstanding debts as well as providing a source of income for everyday living.
Premiums are paid monthly and the cover is set for a fixed period of time, often for the length of a mortgage or up to the age of retirement.

UK Insurers offer an increasing list of specific illnesses which they will cover beyond the most common like cancer, heart disease and strokes, but each insurer has their own list, and therefore if there is a history of a certain illness in the family, some insurers may provide better cover than others.
This provides monthly tax-free payments in the event that you cannot work due to injury, short or long-term sickness or disability. For most policies, these payments can last to retirement age if necessary, and multiple claims can be made provided premiums continue to be paid. Read more
Income Protection Insurance pays out a sum of money every month in the event that you are unable to work due to sickness or injury. The money can be used to cover your regular expenditure like mortgage payments, household bills and other living expenses.
Premiums are paid monthly and the cover is set to pay-out for a period of time, either short term (1-5 years) or up to the age of retirement. The amount that the income protection policy will pay out every month is typically limited to 65% of your monthly salary or income.
The Premiums are affected by various factors including the monthly sum insured, salary, existing health conditions, lifestyle issues like smoking and high BMI, age, occupation and any regular dangerous pursuits.
A good way to reduce the cost of the premiums is to defer when the policy pays out after a claim is registered. It is worth considering whether your employer offers any sickness benefits or whether you have any savings to extend the deferment period.
This type of policy can cover the cost of planned consultations (including same-day access to GPs), scans, treatments and operations through the private healthcare sector. It doesn’t provide financial protection like critical illness cover or income protection, but it will get you faster access to healthcare when you need it. Existing health conditions are typically not covered. Read more
Private medical or health insurance is a form of insurance coverage that individuals can purchase to access private healthcare services. Unlike the National Health Service (NHS), which provides free healthcare services to residents, private health insurance allows individuals to receive medical treatment from private hospitals, clinics, and specialists.
Key features of private health insurance in the UK include:
It’s important to note that private health insurance does not replace the NHS; individuals can still access NHS services even if they have private insurance. Additionally, not all medical conditions may be covered by private health insurance, and policies vary in terms of coverage, exclusions, and costs. Before purchasing private health insurance, individuals should carefully review policy details and consider their specific healthcare needs.
