Can the right protection help you become more financially resilient?

Have you heard of the ‘protection gap’? You probably know someone who’s fallen into it.

Most of us know to get travel or pet insurance, or even just insure our mobile phone. But when it comes to really big life events, cover can easily get overlooked – causing a gap.

Far too many people aren’t properly protected against life-changing events, like losing their job or not being able to work because they’ve fallen ill. Which means that when these things do happen, they can have a much bigger impact than they need to.

Luckily, cover like income protection and critical illness can help people become more financially resilient. So, if you do have a financial shock, it doesn’t have to turn everything upside down. And it can be surprisingly simple and affordable.

If you’ve had a big milestone recently, or a change in your circumstances, it might be the right time to relook at your protection needs.

Reach out to me and I’ll be happy to help.

In working towards becoming a qualified financial adviser, I have obtained the CII Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning after passing a series of examinations, with focus on areas such as investments, pensions, protection and personal taxation.

As a financial adviser I enjoy building meaningful relationships where I am able to develop a deep understanding of my clients’ circumstances and objectives, on a personal and financial level, which massively helps in providing value on a bespoke basis.

I like to work with clients on an ongoing basis, being able to support them every step of the journey, through life’s twists and turns and making complex situations as simple and accessible as possible.

In my spare time I enjoy an array of sports, including playing golf at my home club, Royal Cinque Ports GC, playing football for Old Ardinians FC and have run a couple of marathons in the last couple of years.
