When you’re looking for the best life insurance cover out there, it’s likely you’ll choose from one of the following:

• Term life insurance
• Whole of life insurance
• Decreasing term life insurance

There are also other, niche insurance policy options, including over 50s life insurance or policies for people who wish to cover against certain illnesses.

To find out more about these and to select the best life insurance cover, it can help to speak with an experienced life insurance advisor. They will understand your needs and which providers can help you.

How do I choose?

Choosing the best life insurance cover for you depends on a number of different factors that are specific to your needs.

If you have young children and a mortgage, then you may wish to find a policy that can provide cover for your loved ones that repays any debts and also to replace the income that is lost, should the worst happen.

If you support many dependents on your wage, then finding a life insurance policy that will accommodate your needs and payout enough for them all may take more time to find, with lots of research and comparing different life insurance providers.

This process can become time-consuming, and you may miss out on the best-priced policies for your particular circumstances.

What is the best life insurance policy in the UK?

Because life insurance policies are determined by many factors, including your age, health and general lifestyle, there is no overall ‘best’ policy – though there’s definitely a best life insurance policy for you.

To find this, you should consider what you need your life insurance policy to cover, then find out which providers can give you the best option for your needs, circumstances and budget.

You’ll also need to understand the different types of life insurance available. Read below to find out more, or make an enquiry and we’ll match you with an expert who can discuss these options with you.

Where can I find the best deals in the UK?

To find the best life insurance deals you could take a look at comparison sites, or providers recommended by your friends and family. Another option is to speak with your bank or the provider you use for your home insurance or other insurances you have.

However, there’s no guarantee that this will result in giving you the right cover for the best price. Just because you’ve got great insurance for another area of life, that doesn’t mean they’re the right option for your life insurance plan or that they offer the best value.

Always remember; the cheapest life insurance isn’t the same as the best value.

How to compare life insurance deals

To make sure you’ve found the best life insurance in the UK and know, with confidence, that you have also found the best value deal, you’ll need to compare:

• A variety of life insurance policies
• Different providers
• Features and benefits of each policy

If you want to be confident that you’ve found the best value life insurance but don’t want to put in a lot of research time or compare different life insurance deals to find the best option, you don’t have to. Speak with an expert life insurance advisor and they will work with you to find the best plan for your needs.

What are the best payout rates?

At the time of writing, the average life insurance payout rate in the UK is 98%, according to the Association of British Insurers.

While some insurers may have a lower rate, pretty much all of the UK’s life insurance providers have a payout rate of above 90%. Whether an insurance provider pays out on a particular policy will depend upon a number of factors affecting the policy, such as the accuracy of the questions you answered at the time the policy was taken out.

To help you find the best life insurance cover payout rate and a policy that’s right for you, speak with a life insurance expert who will have these details, and more, at their fingertips.
