The Reduced Cost of Life Assurance/ Mortgage Protection

Life assurance costs have reduced in the past few years mainly as a result of increased competition in the market. For illustration purposes we thought it might be worthwhile to examine this for both life assurance and mortgage protection (also known as life assurance for your mortgage)

A mortgage protection policy for a couple (male aged 27 smoker, female aged 28 non smoker) in the amount of €522,500 over 35 years cost €57.24 per month in 2007. Today it costs €54.19 per month. A reduction of 5.3%.

A life assurance policy for the same couple (dual life, convertible term, indexation) over 25 years would have costs €37.87 in 2006. Today it costs €33.73 per month.  A reduction of 11% per month.
