Simply Life is a new and innovative type of Life Cover from Aegon promising a low cost and easy to understand protection product.
There are various ways of calculating how much life cover you should have. You will need to consider all of your debts, including mortgage, credit cards, car loans etc and also the ongoing monthly costs that will continue after death.
Are you a Company owner? If so, Relevant Life cover can work out much cheaper than a typical life assurance policy for you or your employees. In most cases the premiums are treated as an allowable business expense by HMRC which means that companies qualify for Corporation Tax relief. Furthermore, there is no additional Income Tax or National Insurance to pay either.
Before you know where you are the odd little treat, like your favourite coffee, can soon become a daily routine. Read more.
Today, 1st March 2011, the unimaginable has happened. The European Court of Justice has ruled that Insurers cannot charge different premiums to men and women. The effects of this ruling will be far reaching and will take effect from 21st December 2012.
You may have seen or heard adverts for life cover for over 50’s. Let me start by saying that these types of plans are not always the best value option for you. However for some, they are precisely what you need.
When my wife and I were looking for advice on retirement financial planning a few years ago, Barry was recommended to us by another IFA, who no longer provided that type of advice. Over the last few years, Barry has provided us with very good financial planning advice, tailored to our particular needs and attitudes to financial risk. He contacts us regularly to update us with the latest information and to see if our needs have changed but leaves the final decisions to us, i.e. he does not try to push a particular financial product or company. We have been very pleased with his advice to date and look forward to continuing our association with him.
Mr K.T.
