Term Life Insurance

Term insurance is pure protection: a fixed premium for a fixed term, and a death benefit paid to your nominee if you don’t survive the term — built to replace income and settle obligations, not to build savings.

Overview

Pure protection, sized to what you owe and who depends on you

There is typically no maturity payout if you survive the term — that’s the trade-off for a lower premium. Term insurance exists to replace income and settle obligations, such as a loan, a dependant’s education, or a household’s running costs, not to build savings.

Premiums and eligible age bands vary by insurer, sum assured, and health profile. Your advisor will confirm exact figures for your situation.

Why It Matters

Why term cover matters

Replaces income when it matters most

A lump-sum death benefit goes to your nominee, so a family’s day-to-day running costs don’t depend on one income continuing.

Settles what you owe

Term cover is often sized to a specific obligation, such as an outstanding home loan, so debt doesn’t become a burden left behind.

A lower premium, by design

With no cash or maturity value, term insurance trades that payout for a lower premium — more cover for the same budget.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Term insurance pays only on death within the term and carries no investment component, which is why it costs less for the same cover.

Some plans allow this at specific life events, subject to underwriting. Your advisor will confirm what your chosen plan permits.

On a standard term plan, the policy simply ends and no maturity amount is paid — that is the design, not a shortfall.

Tax treatment depends on current law and your personal situation. Confirm with your advisor before assuming a deduction.
