There are countless strategies, products and providers in the world of insurance, but at the most basic level, there are four main types – and we've found with our clients this is a good place to start.

Critical Illness

  • to cover all associated costs of life-altering illnesses
  • all suppliers cover cancer, heart attack, heart disease, stroke
  • though many other illness can be covered

Life

  • provides a tax-free benefit payable to your heirs
  • to help support your family after your passing

Disability

  • in the case of short- or long-term disabilities like injury, serious illness or mental health
  • designed to supplement your income when disability prevents you from working

Long-Term Care

  • covers health care or assisted living costs for an indeterminate period of time
  • most common among those over 65, suffering from diseases like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson's

Insurance Investments

  • Include annuities, variable annuities, segregated funds and structured settlement funds
