Types of policy
• Term life insurance (cover for a set number of years)
• Whole of life (designed to pay out when you die, as long as premiums are maintained)

Life insurance is for anyone whose death would leave others with a financial gap, especially parents, couples with shared bills, homeowners with a mortgage, people with debts, and business owners. It can also be used to cover funeral costs or leave money to family, friends, or a charity.
The main options are term life (cover for a set number of years), single life (covers one person), joint life (covers two people and usually pays out on the first death), and whole of life (designed to pay out whenever you die, as long as premiums are maintained).


After you’ve chosen the policy type, term and cover amount, you’ll usually pick level, increasing, or decreasing cover. Level cover keeps the payout the same throughout (but it does not rise with inflation). Increasing cover rises over time (often linked to inflation) and premiums usually increase too. Decreasing cover reduces over time and is commonly used to protect a repayment mortgage, with premiums typically staying the same.
It varies based on your age, health, smoker status and lifestyle, the amount of cover you need, the policy type and term length, and sometimes your occupation. Comparing insurers helps you find the best fit for your budget.
