Death benefit insurance
A death benefit policy provides your loved ones with financial protection in the event of your death through an accident or illness.
Why take out a death benefit insurance?
A death benefit insurance provides financial assistance to your family in the event of your death. Your income often makes out a large part of the capital within your family. If this suddenly disappears as a result of your death, a major impact on the financial status of your loved ones may be the result.
Thanks to your death benefit policy, your loved ones will receive a capital that enables them to pay for the funeral costs and inheritance tax, and to maintain the lifestyle they are used to. In this way, you ensure that your family can maintain its standard of living in the future.
Which death benefit policy should I take out?
There are two types of death benefit insurances:
- A life-long death benefit insurance will pay out a capital to your beneficiaries upon your death. The cover can run until the insured person has reached the age of 85 years.
- A term death benefit insurance is only valid for a specific period. A capital is only paid out to your dependents if you pass away before the end date of the insurance contract.
To what should you pay attention when taking out a death benefit insurance?
Some contracts provide for the payment of a capital sum, while others also arrange for the entire funeral service. We therefore provide you with a clear comparison of the countless formulas in terms of death and funeral policies, so that you can decide which policy is the right one for you.
