Life insurance is a way of helping your family cope financially if something happens to you. Having cover means they won’t be left with the added financial stress of funeral costs, everyday bills, or loss of income if you’re no longer able to provide for them.
Even if you don’t have children or other dependants, it’s still important to think about yourself, right? With life insurance you may also be able to add optional cover for some health-related events, helping you with medical bills or other expenses if you suffer a disability or illness.
Life insurance premiums are not tax deductible in New Zealand. But it’s not all bad; this also means that any benefits you receive from your policy won’t be taxed either.
That’s your call. You’ll need to work out how much you and your family will need in case something happens to you. It’s useful to think about both short-term and long-term costs that could come up, as well as ongoing living expenses based on your lifestyle, number of children, income, and more.
