The Difference between Income Protection and Mortgage Protection
For many, protection insurance is considered all the same, however there is a vast difference between income protection and mortgage protection. It is important to understand these differences before taking out protection insurance.
Income Protection
When making a property investment, your top priority is likely to be how to afford the mortgage repayments. Whilst you will almost certainly have purchased home insurance to protect your investment, there are other possibilities you also need to consider to ensure you are protected in every eventuality.
Mandatory fact sheet to educate borrowers about LMI
A mandatory mortgage fact sheet for home buyers has recently been suggested to educate them about LMI.
Insurance tax reforms to be discussed
The Federal Government made a move to put insurance taxes back on the national tax reform agenda, stating that it is an inefficient means to gather revenue.
Why should you invest in life insurance?
Whilst the majority of people wouldn’t think twice about insuring their home or car, personal risk protection is often perceived as expensive and unnecessary. In the current economic climate many Australians are hesitant to invest in life insurance.
