Family Life Insurance - Term Lump Sum
This is the simplest and cheapest type of Family life insurance to pay out a lump sum. It is known as term assurance because the cover runs for a set term ie; how long you're covered for, say, 10, 15, or 20 years (the term).
Term life assureance only pays out if you die within the term you've agreed. If you live longer than the term, you get nothing. As a couple, you can also take out Family Life Insurance term cover in both your names, with the policy paying out if either of you die during the term.
Also consider how large the tem life cover you need if this is not covering say just a debt like a mortgage or loan. Common practise is 10 x salary.
