What is Life Insurance?
Life insurance helps protect your family’s financial future and gives them options if you are no longer around. It is a contract between an insurer and a policyholder in which the insurer guarantees payment of a death benefit to named beneficiaries upon the death of the insured. Often, the best time to think about life insurance is when your life circumstances change, like after getting married or if you’re expecting a baby. If you pass away or become terminally ill, a lump sum payment can be used to give your loved ones options with how they manage future expenses like mortgage repayments or debt, or provide for future financial needs such as school fees or living expenses. This essential financial tool helps manage risk and ensures that your loved ones are cared for financially, even when you’re no longer there to do so yourself.
