Personal protection insurance may not be on your mind right now. With Christmas close and festivities at hand, you’re unlikely to be wondering what type of personal protection cover you may need. But wouldn’t it be nice to start the New Year at ease, knowing that you and your family are covered against the unpredictable circumstances of life?
One of the reasons I set up Oportfolio in 2008 was to offer our clients succinct and clear advice on both protection and insurance, and I’m happy to say that it’s still our job today.
At Oportfolio, one of our specialist areas is protecting our clients. Our aim is to ensure whatever happens in life, money is still there for them, and for their family and for their loved ones. This can cover anything from loss of earnings to life assurance, private medical insurance or key man insurance and critical illness cover.
Finding the right personal protection insurance
Needless to say, there are plenty of policies to choose from. With so many companies offering deals on insurance, it can be daunting to choose the right one for your needs and the one that will provide you with the money you need, when you need it. The most suitable option can depend on many factors and variables, which is why I have collated a few simple ideas to get you started.
You may be a single person who is thinking of buying their first house, or perhaps you have just started operating your own business – in your case, it may be a good option to take out loss of earnings or key man insurance.
You may be a parent of a young family – although it is not a comfortable thought, you might want to consider taking out critical illness cover, so you can carry on enjoying the good moments in life with your family and gain some valuable breathing-space, safe in the knowledge that you and your loved ones are covered in case a misfortune were to strike.
These are just ideas. Of course, making the right decision for your individual circumstances requires a longer conversation with your adviser, where you can assess all the variables and sift through the types of insurance covers on offer, matching the right one to your needs.
