Protection
Simply put, risk management is a two-step process - determining what risks you face, then handling those risks in a way suited to your personal and financial situation.
Risk Transfer
Health problems. Car accidents. An untimely death. No one wants to think about catastrophic events, but everyone should be prepared. Without adequate protection, the unforeseen puts all you’ve worked for at risk.
Insurance, as part of a comprehensive financial planning strategy, is a way of managing the risks we all face every day. It allows you to take a specific risk, detailed in the insurance contract, and pass it from yourself to someone (the insurance company) willing to take on the risk for a fee, or premium. Insurance can potentially:
- Replace income your family depends upon in the event of the death of a wage-earner.
- Protect your estate from estate taxes.
- Cover healthcare costs should you develop an acute or long-term illness
Where do you start?
Managing risk is a key part of any comprehensive financial strategy. It’s vital you have both an appropriate amount and type of protection for the various risks you face.
