#5: Income Protection Insurance – Is it really worth having?
If you were unable to work and earn a living, would you be able to cover your mortgage and living expenses? If the answer is no, then securing income protection insurance should be priority consideration.
Changes to income protection insurance were introduced on 1 October 2021, and this has resulted in significant variations to policy benefits, definitions and premium amounts. Income protection insurance is a key aspect of a financial protection strategy. Now more than ever, it requires advice that closely aligns with individual needs including stage of life and level of financial responsibility so that the most appropriate policy can be selected.
