Life insurance is important because it helps you, your family and loved ones to cope financially should the unexpected happen to you.

Many people think life insurance only covers you in the event of your death. But in reality there are many other illnesses and injuries that can prevent you from working for weeks, months, or even the rest of your life, that you need to protect yourself against.
