Frequently asked questions about Life Insurance
To determine the appropriate level of coverage for your individual situation, you should work with a qualified financial adviser. Several factors influence the amount of cover you need, such as your income, debts, and dependents. You should consider how much your family would need to cover living expenses, debts, and future expenses. Although a general rule of thumb is to have cover equal to 10-12 times your annual income, your individual circumstances may vary.
You can choose from different types of life insurance policies, including:
- Term: This policy provides coverage for a specific period, such as 10 or 20 years. The premiums are usually lower than other policies, but the coverage ends when the term expires.
