You’ve probably set up life insurance for many of your clients to cover those larger financial liabilities like a mortgage. That lump sum payment may be vital to keep a roof over their heads. But a family will still struggle to meet day-to-day living costs even if the mortgage has been paid off.
Family Income Benefit is an affordable way to plug this protection gap for your client.
It’s designed to pay out a tax-free monthly income until the end of the term, on the death of the life assured or diagnosis of a terminal illness. It’s available as part of our Flexible Protection Plan – either on its own, or combined with other policies. As a menu plan, our Flexible Protection Plan allows you to mix and match different types of insurance options for your clients.
The main features of Family Income Benefit include:
