ensure a steady source of income for your family if you pass away
Family Income Benefits (FIB) are a type of life insurance policy that provides a regular tax-free income to the beneficiaries – usually the insured’s family or dependents – in the event of the policyholder’s death.
family income benefit explained
Unlike traditional life insurance, which typically pays out a lump sum, Family Income Benefit pays out a regular income, often on a monthly or yearly basis, for a predetermined period.
Family Income Benefit is particularly useful for individuals who want to ensure that their loved ones have a steady source of income if they were to pass away prematurely. It can help cover ongoing living expenses, such as mortgage or rent payments, education costs, and daily necessities.
Who needs family income benefit?
Family income benefit is advised for the following individuals:
Parents
Parents often consider Family Income Benefit to provide financial support for their children’s education, daily needs, and other expenses if they are no longer there to provide for them.

Homeowners
If you have a mortgage or other substantial debts, a Family Income Benefit policy can be used to ensure that your family can continue to make mortgage payments and stay in their home even after your death.
Homeowners with Mortgages
If you have a mortgage on your home, life insurance can help ensure that your family can continue to make mortgage payments and keep the family home in case of your passing.
Single Parents
Single parents who are the sole providers for their children may find Family Income Benefit especially important to guarantee that their children’s financial needs are met if they are not there to provide for them.
Young Families
Young families with limited savings may rely heavily on the income of one or both parents. FIB can serve as a safety net to maintain the family’s financial stability in case of a tragedy.
Shareholders
Shareholders in limited companies may choose relevant life insurance to protect their families and beneficiaries while minimising tax liabilities.
Anyone with Dependents
Whether you have children, elderly parents, or other dependents who rely on your financial support, Family Income Benefit can be a suitable option to ensure that their needs are met in your absence.
