    Why you can save money on life assurance and critical illness

    Over the course of the last 18 months to 2 years protection costs, have in many cases been decreasing. It has however recently been announced that providers will be increasing the cost very shortly. The market has never been more competitive and you may never have a better opportunity to save money by taking advantage of low cost life assurance and critical illness cover.

    There are a number of factors to consider:

    The new Friends Provident plan will need to be underwritten and could be offered on different terms or rejected if your state of health is different to when you originally took out the plan. If you do elect to take this offer you must ensure that the new plan is acceptable and in force before you stop the original.

    You may wish to consider your level of cover as it may no longer be suitable, will it suffice? If you feel a review would be beneficial we can help you with this.

    Mortgage protection plans are usually used in conjunction with repayment mortgages to protect against death and/or critical illness. The cover is designed to reduce in line with the outstanding mortgage loan.

    Life insurance cover is designed to pay out a lump sum should you die during the term of the policy. This is usually on a level basis, meaning that the sum assured does not reduce. Critical illness cover may also be included in the plan.

    For an additional cost, critical illness cover can be added to the life cover or mortgage protection plans. It provides cover if you are diagnosed with a critical illness such as cancer, stroke, heart attack, loss of hearing, and numerous others.
