A Life insurance Policy is all about caring.
Life insurance is a means of planning ahead and allows you to leave a legacy to your loved ones.
In a sense it is a gift of love. Having insurance also gives you peace of mind, knowing that all will be well when you pass on.
What is Life insurance All about?
Life insurance offers accidental death cover. Your family will receive a cash payment within 24 hours of the death of the insured, depending on the policy terms.
An insurance plan also has a cash surrender value or a cash-back value depending on the terms of the policy. It offers optional additional disability cover worth up to R5 million and extra critical illness cover worth up to R3 million.
We all realise that death is traumatic for those left behind. However, with the stress of losing someone, families should not also have to face financial burdens. Failing to plan ahead can lead to hardship.
