To help protect against the effects of inflation, your clients can choose to increase the amount of cover over the term of their plan in one of two ways:

• Fixed rate – at a chosen rate of interest (between 2% and 5%)
• Index-linked rate – based on the change in the retail price index (between 2% and 10%).

Your clients can reduce the amount of cover over the term of their policy in the following way:

• Mortgage or business loan repayment – Reduces in line with a repayment mortgage or business loan with a set interest rate (between 0% and 15%). If your clients' mortgage interest rates change, the amount we pay may not be enough to pay off their mortgage.

Your clients' plans come with Cover Increase Options which means they can increase their cover without giving us any medical information if there's:

• an increase in the value of a key person
• an increase to their business mortgage or loan
• an increase in the value of a partner’s or shareholder's interest in the business.

However, if they want to increase the amount of their cover for any other reason, they may need to supply medical evidence.
