LONDON, ENGLAND, September 30, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- The different types of
life insurance cover available can sound confusing, but the choice is more straightforward than people think. If you have a family with children, as a bare minimum you should consider life assurance that would pay off your mortgage upon death. There is then the option of cover that would pay out in the event of you contracting a serious illness. Both types of cover can be provided either as a lump sum or as a regular income.
For new parents, life insurance company AVIVA is currently offering GBP10,000
FREE life cover until their child's first birthday - GBP20,000 if both parents apply. In their recent Parents Study, Aviva found that almost 40% of parents polled have not bought life insurance cover and a further 17% only have enough to cover their mortgage.
Richard Morea, Technical Manager at L&C said, "When taking out a mortgage or starting a family, it is essential that borrowers and parents look at their life insurance needs and make sure that their family is properly protected if the worst were to happen. It's important to shop around and get advice too, because banks and building societies that offer good mortgage rates will not always offer good rates on life insurance."
