We all know that Income Protection is hugely undersold or advised on in the UK, despite it being widely accepted as one of the most important personal protection products.
The phrase ‘Plug The Gap’ is well known. In the UK Critical Illness Insurance out sells Income Protection by around 5 to 1, whilst providing essential cover in certain circumstances it doesn’t necessarily cover the impact of not having an income.
You need to ask yourself:
- What happens if you are unable to work due to an accident or illness?
- Do you receive any sick pay from your employer and if so, for how long?
- Do you have any savings to cover you if they were unable to work?
- If you self-employed, well how do you pay yourself if you not out there working and earning?
- What would happen to the things dependent on that salary or income?
Why not send us a copy of your employers sick pay benefits, and we can discuss exactly what you have in place and maybe find an affordable solution to plug any gaps?
Think about the long term affects
- Pension contributions stop
- Savings reduce to cover any day to day necessities
- Lifestyle changes have to be made to fit the new budget
- Mortgage or rent payments could become unaffordable
An Income Protection policy would help prevent any hardships and provide you with the protection you need.
We all hope that the people we speak to are not unfortunate enough to need to make a claim, but when they do, they are always thankful to have been advised on the right protection.
Justin Fordham and his team at JF Financial Associates are passionate about offering honest advice to everyone. We are also desperately trying to bridge this gap of lack of advice for people who need income protection.
We are that passionate that we are offering fee free consultations to anyone looking to review their current insurance portfolio. (*we don’t charge you a fee for our consultations because the insurance companies we use will pay us a commission for offering the advice on their behalf. We also use a network approved panel of trusted providers who all pay similar commissions. This means we are not single tied or favour one provider over another. Quite the opposite, it means we will always select the most suitable provider from our panel to suit your specific situation.)
