Potential funeral costs
The average UK funeral costs between £4,000 and £5,000. If you have expensive tastes or a massive family, it may be more. Worth thinking about.

Childcare, school or higher education costs
You’ll know your childcare, private school or tuition fee obligations. But did you know it costs roughly £1,500 - £2,500 per year to fund one child through state school? There’s sports, activities, after school clubs, uniforms, travel expenses, technology (such as a laptop or iPad) to consider.

Existing life insurance, savings & investments
Total up any savings, investments and life insurance policies that you intend to keep. When you die your savings go towards your debt anyway - so it’s important you’re not ‘over-insured’. That’s just a waste of money.

Family or mortgage term
x
With level term life insurance, the cover amount stays the same throughout the term. Decreasing term life insurance, on the other hand, has a cover amount that reduces over time.
Critical Illness (CI)
x
In terms of how much cover you need there’s no right or wrong answer, just what feels right for you based on your circumstances & budget. For example, you may want to multiply your annual income by two or three. That way, if a critical illness leads you to being off work, you know you’re covered for two or three years at least.
CI Type
x
If combined, your policy will only pay out once. So if you claim on critical illness cover, then your life cover ends. Separate policies with a critical illness claim won't affect your life insurance, but consider the amount you need your critical illness cover to pay out.
