A
guide to Family Income Benefit
Family
Income Benefit (FIB) is a Term Insurance product that, in the event of
a claim, pays out a regular income for the remaining term of the policy,
instead of a 'one off' lump sum.
It
is used to provide financial security covering regular financial commitments,
including ordinary everyday living expenses, until a fixed point in the
future.
FIB
is available as:
- Life
Cover only called Family Income Benefit Life Insurance
- Life & Critical Illness Cover called Family Income Benefit Life & Critical Illness Insurance
Each
of the above is available with an Indexed Benefit called:
- Indexed
Family Income Benefit Life Insurance
- Indexed
Family Income Benefit Life & Critical Illness Insurance
All
the policies are all available on a joint or single life basis and you
can choose whether to include Waiver of premium.
Example:
A couple both aged 35 years old with a mortgage, additional monthly commitments
of £1,000.00 a month and a 6-year-old child might take out an FIB
policy, alongside their Mortgage Protection policy, for £12,000
a year over a 15-year term to provide cover until the daughters 21st birthday.
