Features

Life insurance, otherwise known as death cover, can give you peace of mind knowing your family will have financial security if you were to die or become terminally ill.

Your dependents receive a lump sum payment that they can use to meet future expenses, pay off the mortgage or other debts and maintain their lifestyle when they need it most.

Often included within death cover is a terminal illness benefit. This is an important benefit where we pay all or part of your cover if you are diagnosed with a terminal illness and have less than 12 months to live.*

Example

Greg is 48 years old and runs a small business with his wife, Sue. They have three children under the age of 12, when Greg has a sudden heart attack and passes away. To add to the family’s devastation, Sue is left wondering what will happen to the business and how she will support the kids on her own.

Because Greg took out comprehensive life insurance, Sue receives a lump sum benefit of $2 million. She uses the money to cover the costs of the funeral and clear the mortgage and bills while she tries to adjust to life without Greg and work out what to do next. It’s a relief to her that she doesn’t have to worry about money on top of everything else that follows Greg’s death.

Thanks to the financial support the family receives, Sue is able to take adequate time to make a decision about the business: whether she wants to keep running it on her own, sell it, or hire a replacement for Greg’s role.

As Greg calculated a level of cover that would ensure the same standard of living for as long as the children are still in school, Sue has peace of mind knowing her kids will be taken care of until they achieve financial independence.
