PROTECTION
Everything is based around trust, you being open and honest with us and then we can tailor the best solutions for your needs.
INDIVIDUALS
As an individual you are responsible for your own finances, it also means if something happens that impacts your ability to work or lifestyle your savings or family may have to be relied upon if you do not have the relevant protection plans in place.

COUPLES
As a couple you may be fortunate enough to have the back up from your partner should something happen, but it could still result in considerable strain on your finances as well as relationship, and if one were to die it could impact the others future especially if your mortgage is not protected.

FAMILIES

Tip 1
Do you know what your fixed outgoings are?
A good starting point is to look at what you need to spend each month, how much you have in savings and then consider how long your current standard of living could last if you had no income.

Tip 2
Have you been a smoker in the past?
If you have been a smoker and not smoked during the last 12 months you can be eligible for products on non smoker rates.​​ It is always worth reviewing your eligibility for insurance. Why pay more just because you were a smoker.

Tip 3
One thing many people forget to do is update their beneficiary details on protection plans after a divorce, separation or birth of a child.
Check if your plans are up to date to ensure the right people can benefit.

Tip 4
Did you know if your life cover is not in a trust it can be liable for Inheritance tax as it will be added to the overall value of your estate upon death.
Do you want your life cover to be taxed at 40%? We can help ensure it is not.
