This report covers the life and health (illness) protection
market, including life insurance, critical illness insurance and
income protection. It does not cover areas like private medical
cover; instead it studies the insurance coverage of risks
associated with death and inability to work due to illness.
Numerous studies have shown that UK consumers are generally
under insured for the death and illness risks they face, a fact
that has not changed recently and is unlikely to change in future.
This report examines the level of insurance cover consumers have
and why they may be under insured. It will assess consumer
perceptions of life and illness cover and go on to assess how these
attitudes may impact on policy ownership. The report also looks in
detail at the customer experience when arranging a policy and
considers attitudes towards a number of issues relating to having
life and illness cover.
