• Do you have any cover in place?
• Do you know what the benefits of your cover are?
• Do you have a schedule of all insurances in one place?
• Are there clear instructions of what to do if the need for a claim arises
• Does our spouse/beneficiaries know where to access the file and who to contact if a claimable event arises?
• Who is the beneficiary listed on your policy? Is this clearly stated on your policies?
• Do you have a will in place?
• Do you know what happens if you die without a beneficiary being listed?
• Do you have a record of premium amounts being deducted from your various bank accounts/credit cards?
• How did you come up with the amount of insurance cover you currently have in place?
• Is your Insurance Premiums being paid by the right vehicle (is it possible to pay for your insurance through your Superannuation)?
