With every client you speak to their individual circumstances will differ. Income Protection is a product that can often be overlooked, however, in certain circumstances it can be a very affordable and provide valuable protection for your clients, giving them a regular monthly income helping to maintain their lifestyle and pay their bills.

Ask yourself. Do your clients understand the value they could get from an Income Protection policy?

If your clients are unable to work because of a medical condition or an injury, not knowing if they can pay their bills causes additional worry and stress. Many of us would struggle to keep on top of our essential outgoings, such as mortgage payments and/or rent, if we lost an income due to illness or an accident. Income protection is a long-term insurance policy that makes sure your clients get a regular income until they retire or can return to work.

Are you regularly talking to your clients about Income Protection? Do they know the risks? Good customer outcomes come from explaining the product using everyday language that customers understand so that your clients know what cover they have and can be certain their policy pays out when they need it.

We hope you find this edition useful, as always, a big thank you to our providers for your articles and insight to help us bring this bulletin together.
