Insure your life, so that they can live theirs
While it’s not nice to think about, it is important to consider what would happen to your family if you were suddenly no longer here.
By taking out life assurance, you’re leaving them a lump-sum payment when you die. It can make a difficult time that little bit easier and help to take care of the costs that can soon stack up.
It's also a chance to fund your children’s education or help them buy their first home. Things you’d love to have done in life.
And that’s one of the benefits of life assurance. The money can be used for any purpose. It could be a lifeline to help your family cope, or a springboard for their future.

Frequently asked questions
Life assurance usually covers you for the whole of your life. That’s why it’s sometimes called ‘whole of life’ cover. It means that sooner or later, the policy will always pay out.
Life insurance, on the other hand, typically works on a fixed-term basis. That means your life cover only lasts for the duration of the term.
Both types of policy pay out a lump-sum benefit on death.
If you’re looking for the security of a guaranteed pay-out when you die, then life assurance may be right for you. Other protection products are available though and may be more suitable.
Our Specialist Financial Advisers will be able to guide you, based on your circumstances.
The cost of your premiums will depend on a wide range of factors. These include your age, health, lifestyle and the level of the cover you need.
Premiums for life assurance are often higher than for other types of life insurance. That’s because other policies don’t guarantee a lump sum when you die.
When you take out the policy, you’ll nominate the ‘beneficiary’. That’s the person who will receive the payout when you die.
You can nominate multiple beneficiaries, and it doesn’t have to be family members. Your Specialist Financial Adviser will be happy to discuss the options with you.
A death benefit payment from a life assurance policy is usually not classed as taxable income. So, there’s no income tax or capital gains tax for the beneficiary to pay.
Please note this is based on current understanding of legislation and tax treatment, which can change in the future.
