Frequently asked questions
How can premium finance loans help with life insurance?
Life insurance premium financing is a strategy that allows individuals to cover the cost of their life insurance policies by taking out a premium finance loan. This can be particularly useful for those who wish to maintain their cash flow while ensuring they have sufficient coverage in place. By working with premium finance lenders, you can arrange a financing solution that fits your needs, helping you pay premiums without impacting your financial stability.
How much life insurance will I need?
Determining the amount of life insurance you need involves considering various factors like funeral expenses, outstanding debts, financial obligations, and income support for dependents. It’s crucial to have a full understanding of what your beneficiaries will need to maintain their lifestyle and achieve their goals.
We recommend evaluating both your financial obligations and the assets your beneficiaries will receive, such as superannuation or investment payouts. Consulting a qualified adviser can help you determine the appropriate level of cover for your unique needs.
When should I consider life insurance?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer for when to get life insurance, but major life events like getting married, having children, or buying a home are key moments when it’s important to secure coverage. Life insurance can provide protection during these stages, giving you peace of mind for the future.
What is the best way to compare life insurance policies and advisory options?
Comparison websites may give an overview but often miss important details that can impact your coverage. To ensure you’re choosing the right policy, speak with a qualified life insurance advisor who can provide insight into the level of cover you need and offer quotes from trusted providers.
Should I hold life insurance within my super or choose a guaranteed policy?
Life insurance through your superannuation can be convenient, as premiums are paid directly from your super balance, but this can also reduce your retirement savings. Alternatively, holding life insurance outside of super offers flexibility and immediate access to benefits but requires post-tax payments. Your financial goals will help determine the right option, and our advisors can guide you through this decision.
