Life Insurance

Why Insurance Matters

Life’s full of surprises, and not all of them are good. That’s why being prepared for the unexpected is crucial. Think about it: an accident, illness, or worse, the loss of a family member who earns, can really shake up your family’s financial world. In fact, research by Deloitte found that 60%-80% of families don’t have enough insurance. That’s where the right insurance can be a game-changer, protecting your family and your income when you need it most.

Different Types of Life Insurance and How They Help

• Life Cover: Pays a set amount of money when the insured person passes away. You can nominate who gets the money.
• Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Cover: Helps with rehabilitation costs, paying off debts, and future living expenses if you’re permanently disabled. It’s often paired with life cover.
• Trauma Cover: Steps in if you get diagnosed with a major illness or injury, like cancer or a stroke. Also known as ‘critical illness’ cover or ‘recovery’ insurance.
• Income Protection: Replaces your income if you can’t work due to injury or sickness.
