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.

How do I do this?
I put my clients' interests first and get to know what they want out of life; what their financial goals are and how I can help realise them.
 
Typical things that clients need to consider:
  • When can I afford to stop working?
  • Can I afford to buy my own home?
  • Can I help my children buy their first home?
  • Can we do anything about our potential inheritance tax bill?
  • Are my savings safe and getting the most suitable return?
  • What will happen to my family in the event of a catastrophe?
I understand that financial needs change, and therefore, I will always communicate with my clients in a way that is clear, fair, and not misleading. I believe it is essential to have an agreed contract strategy to allow my clients to discuss any change in circumstances or future aspirations on a regular basis.
 
My clients achieve peace of mind by taking steps to:
 
  • Ensure they're never paying too much for their mortgage
  • Protect current and future lifestyle and maximise opportunities to accumulate and preserve wealth
  • Enjoy the fruits of their investments when the time comes
 
I find it hugely rewarding when my clients can go about their daily lives knowing that they are well-protected and that their life's goals are realistic and being planned for financially.
 
When I am not working, I am a big supporter of the local triathlon club, so you'll often see me supporting my husband and close friends. I have also recently qualified as a local technical officer with British Triathlon so I also get involved in marshalling and supervising races in all weathers, cheering everybody on!
