Protection Types

Decreasing Term Assurance (DTA) – This is a policy that pays out a cash lumpsum on claim that decreases over the course of the policy. This is the most popular type of policy to protect a reducing liability and offers the cheapest type of cover.

Level Term Assurance (LTA) – This policy pays out a cash lumpsum on claim that remains unchanged over the course of the policy. This type of policy is appropriate where a specific amount of money is required on claim and is more expensive than an equivalent DTA policy.

Each of these policies can be set up on either an individual or joint basis.

Income Protection Benefit (IPB) – This policy pays out a replacement income where a client is unable to work due to illness or injury (including mental health issues), after a specified deferred period has elapsed. This is the most comprehensive type of cover available as the benefit can be claimed multiple times throughout the course of the policy.  

With direct access to underwriters and named case managers the team at Nicholas James can get real answers from real people when our clients need it most.
