‘It is better to have insurance and not need it, than to need it and not have it.’
Every day we put ourselves at risk
All of us are exposed to dangers and threats regardless of our lifestyle and circumstances. There are many types of risk factors including those related to health, genetics, geographic location, and even our occupation has a level of risk attached to it. Unfortunately, there is no way to eliminate 100% of risks, so we have to plan for the best and prepare for the worst.
Where are you going to turn if you lose your job tomorrow? What happens if a natural disaster terrorised your family home? What if you or your partner was all of a sudden struck down with cancer? It doesn’t matter how careful you are, there are things in life you can’t control.

Insurance enables you to replace or repair your assets, whether those assets are your belongings or your capacity to earn income.
