Our Sponsors Unusual Risks, financial advisers to the HIV Community are today announcing part two of the results of their HIV Life Insurance Survey. During the last two years they increased the sums assured of existing clients by 112%, where they preferred to increase their cover instead of taking a 40% premium reduction.
The new products are only available through a broker such as Unusual Risks and are not available through Banks and Mainstream Insurers. When price checked against the major banks and insurers, the majority of them are charging double or triple those premiums being charged within the new products available through Unusual Risks.
Speaking about their survey, Chris Morgan, Lead Financial Adviser of Unusual Risks Said;
“The new generation of products mean that anyone that is living with HIV who took their policy before March 2018 should review their current arrangements, especially if there existing cover is with Zurich, Vitality, Liverpool Victoria, Legal & General, Exeter Friendly or Aviva. Those policy holders are likely to be overpaying and should seek advice on the current market rates”.
Chris Continued ..
“Each year Unusual Risks track the average sum assured of HIV life Insurance and they have seen an increase in the amounts of cover being taken by people living with HIV. The average annual figure is currently £227,223, which is double historic figures around from 10 years ago – this in mainly due to the improved pricing of products available”.
Chris Morgan and Unusual Risks have campaigned on behalf of the HIV Community for over two decades, firstly for the introduction of HIV Life Assurance, followed by the lengthening of policy terms and then most recently the reduction of monthly premiums. They are still currently able to place Life Insurance for people living with HIV at competitive premiums.
Unusual Risks are very proud to have played the lead role in improving the accessibility of financial products for people with HIV over the last decade and will continue to work on behalf of the community to secure better products. They are now able to guarantee all people living with HIV between the ages of 18 and 64 access to some form of Life Insurance.
