How Much Life Insurance Do I need?

Life Assurance - A Rough Calulation


A simple guide is to work out how much of your monthly income your family still need after your death. Multiply this by 12 to determine the annual income and then multiply by the number of years this income is needed. (This should be at least until your youngest child would complete their education.)


Add on the amount to cover any loans plus a further £10,000 for expenses and you will have the recommended amount of cover. State benefits may also be available to a widowed mother and children. Employer benefits may also be available.
