Protect what's important to you
Life insurance
Keep your finances secure with an insurance solution catered to your specific needs, so you have peace of mind when unexpected injury, illness or worse occurs.
Don’t get left without protection
No one plans to get hurt or sick, but you can't predict the future - the best you can do is prepare for it.
If you get seriously injured or ill, you’ll need to be able to cover your family’s day-to-day expenses while you’re unable to work as well as any extra costs associated with your recovery.
When you eventually pass away, you’ll want to set your family up for financial success by covering any debts like a mortgage or credit cards and having a nest egg ready for your loved ones.
Not having the right cover could mean
- Not being able to pay school fees or the mortgage if you can't work for an extended period of time.
- Not having enough time to recover from accident or serious illness because you need to return to work.
- Having to sell the family home or other assets if you become seriously ill, disabled or pass away.

Starting to think about retirement
Why would I need insurance at my age?
It's great to be young and adventurous and taking on many new exciting experiences. While you're discovering yourself and what you want to do with your life, it's beneficial to keep your finances in mind to protect your future.
Whether you're studying or at the start of your career, you're less likely to have assets to draw on to support you if you're temporarily unable to work because of a serious injury or illness. Medical expenses can be costly, and paired with the loss of an income, you could struggle to pay rent or save towards your future home.
