Whole of Life insurance is a policy that is guaranteed to pay out to your loved ones after you pass away, as a means of ensuring they are both financially secure and also able to manage any commitments you leave behind. This is lifelong protection that can make a difficult time that little bit less stressful.
You can choose different plans depending on how you would like to pay your premiums. You can make payments up until the day you die, for a set period of time, or as a one-off sum. Your money can also be used as investments, which could create a higher return in the future.
There are a number of factors to consider with whole of life insurance – how many dependants will you have? Will there still be mortgage payments due after your death? How much of an inheritance would you be leaving behind?
As it involves a guaranteed financial payout, whole of life policies can be a little more expensive than regular life insurance, so it can be tricky to figure out which option best suits your needs. The cost of your premium can also vary depending on your age, health – even your smoking habits come into play.
