People assume income protection and critical illness cover are the same thing.
They’re not.
One is designed to help support ongoing income if you’re unable to work for a period of time.
The other provides a lump sum on diagnosis of a specified condition.
Both play very different roles within financial planning, which is why understanding how they work matters.
Because good protection planning isn’t just about having cover in place.
It’s about having the right type of cover for your situation.
