Understanding life assurance

‘Life assurance’ is essentially the same thing as ‘life insurance’. At John Charcol, we offer competitive life assurance from Legal & General.

Not sure which type of UK life assurance is right for you? Take a look at the options we offer:

• You choose the amount of cover you want and how long you would like the policy to run for.
• If you die during the policy term your insurer will pay the amount you are covered for.
• If you set up a joint policy (one policy to cover two people) the amount of cover is paid out on the first death.
• The policy stops when a claim has been paid. These policies have no cash in value at any time.

• You choose the amount of cover you want and how long you would like the policy to run for.
• The amount of cover reduces each month during the policy term and is calculated to be enough to equal the capital outstanding under a normal repayment mortgage.
• If you die during the policy term your insurer will pay the calculated amount of cover at that time.
