Term AssuranceFind the best Life Cover for your Needs

The word Assurance usually implies that the Insurance cover is being taken out to cover an eventuality, rather than in case of something unexpected happening. Term Assurance is different however, as the Assurance of a payout upon the policyholder's death is only guaranteed within a certain period of time. Therefore, Term Assurance is more commonly known as Life Insurance. The cost of a Term Assurance policy will depend on a number of factors, including your age, your gender, your lifestyle and the state of your health. This is because the insurance company needs to establish the risk of you dying before the term of the policy is over, and therefore the likelihood of a payout. More info

When you are planning to take out a Term Assurance policy, you will be asked by the insurer to specify the length of time during which you would like to be covered (the 'term'), say 10, 20 or 30 years. Unlike other types of Life Insurance, a Term Assurance policy does not build up any value, despite your regular premium payments. This means that although you would receive a payout in the event of your death if it happens within the time limits of the policy, you would receive nothing if you died after this time.
