Royal London’s life insurance options

Royal London’s product portfolio includes the following.

The company offers three types of cover:

  • level cover

This offers a single payment of up to £350,000

You pay a fixed amount per month over the term and both it and the pay-out amount stay the same over the period. This is sometimes used to ensure the clearing of a mortgage debt or to support your family after your death;

  • decreasing cover

Again, cover is available as a lump-sum single payment of up to £350,000

The amount paid out decreases over the term of the policy. That means typically it will cost less than level cover although payments do stay the same over the term of the policy. This type of cover is often linked to a standard repayment mortgage or any other commitment where the sum required to clear the debt decreases over time.

Royal London no longer an over 50 life insurance plan, however, if you would like to compare the best over 50 life insurance plans on the market take a look at our table starting from £3.70 a month.
