    About insurance calculators

    Insurance cover should reflect your liabilities and dependants, not a round number suggested by an advisor. A common rule of thumb is 10x salary for life insurance, but that ignores your mortgage, childcare costs, and partner's income. These tools start from your real numbers — outstanding debts, monthly outgoings, dependant ages — and produce a sum assured you can quote against. Pair with our salary calculators for income figures.
