With term assurance policies, lower premiums make them an affordable way of helping to protect your family in the event of your death, within the policy term, but there is no guarantee of a payout. Some life insurance policies however, can be effectively used as an investment.
Whole life or endowment policies may provide the beneficiaries with a payout after a fixed period or a death. These payments can be a fixed amount, or in some cases linked to an insurance company's investment performance in the form of with profits policies or unit linked policies.
With profits policies may generate rewards from the valuation of the assets and liabilities of the insurer's life fund, but premiums will be much higher. Unit linked policies link the value of the policy to units in a unitised fund. The units are linked to the underlying value of the fund. The value of the policy can therefore fluctuate depending on the value of the units. The pricing structure and type of fund depends on your insurance company. Many insurance companies now have unitised with-profits funds.
Please be aware that in some cases this type of assurance is based on an assessment of the health of the applicant.
THE VALUE OF INVESTMENTS AND THE INCOME FROM THEM MAY GO DOWN. YOU MAY NOT GET BACK THE ORIGINAL AMOUNT INVESTED. IF PREMIUMS ARE NOT MAINTAINED, THEN COVER WILL LAPSE.
IFA Financial Services have provided me with mortgage and pension advice over a number of years. They have consistently provided a highly professional and efficient service in an extremely friendly and approachable manner. Advice, whenever needed, is readily given and clearly explained. I feel that my financial affairs are in very safe hands and on this basis I would recommend then to anyone.
The staff were very friendly and helpful to ease us through this process. Thank you all very much for sorting out this for me and if I need any help in the future I know where to come.
Allowing IFA to guide my husband and I with our finances is one of the best decisions I have made. I feel secure with arrangements for my pension and savings. You know they are genuinely interested in helping when they advise you to leaving certain savings where they are rather than them taking control.
I had paid little attention to my pension arrangements during a working life where I ran several of my own companies and was both was self-employed and an employee for periods. Frankly I was suspicious of “financial advisers” during the bad old days of the 70s, 80s and 90s when they were nothing more than insurance salesman more motivated by commission payments than their clients’ well-being.
We were recommended to IFA by a friend as I was in need of advice about my pension arrangements. I am happy to say that the advice we received has proved very beneficial and although our circumstances have changed quite a few times since our first meeting in 2016 we have found IFA to be helpful in discussing our new needs and prompt in meeting our requirements.
