Quick guides

Which type of life insurance is right for you?

All our life insurance plans will pay a cash lump sum if you die within the plan term. Some plans are for a fixed term, while others provide you with life cover for the rest of your life. The table below describes some of the reasons why you may need life insurance and the type of cover which may be suitable in those circumstances. Take a look to see if any of them apply to you.

Most of our life insurance plans don't have any cash-in value at any time. The only exception is a Guaranteed Whole of Life plan, where there may be a small cash-in value if you choose to pay either by a single premium or for a limited premium term, but this will be less than you've paid in.
