Impaired risk life insurance specialists in the UK

What is impaired risk life insurance?

Life insurance is like a suit of clothes. Unfortunately, while standard rates are the “off the peg” equivalent, some of us need clothes that are made to measure.

Luckily, life insurance cover can also be “made to measure” if you have health or occupation issues or require a large sum assured - normally over £2M for Key Man or Inheritance Tax insurance.

Standard premiums for life cover are based on the age and gender of an individual deemed to have average health and life expectancy. However, if you have a medical condition, or if your occupation or sport is considered hazardous, you may not be eligible for standard rates and require non-standard, or impaired risk life insurance.

The reason these cases are a considered non standard, or impaired risk, is due to the financial underwriting expertise required and the varying levels of Re-Assurance used by different Insurance Companies.
