Why would you need disability insurance?
Your income is the cornerstone of maintaining your standard of living. It is used to pay for everyday expenses such as food, clothing, electricity and bond repayments. Benefit payments from sickness and income replacement policies are made on a monthly basis and act as a stable income if you are temporarily or permanently disabled affecting your earning ability.
Lump sum benefits pay out a once-off amount if you become permanently disabled. The funds can be used to cover immediate lifestyle adjustment costs such as making adjustments to your home and vehicle. Any excess funds can be reinvested to provide you and your family with an income.
