Family protection calculator

What's your family protection gap?

Protecting a family usually takes more than one policy. This calculator looks at three things at once — the lump sum your family would need, the monthly income you'd want to replace, and your emergency fund — then subtracts what you already have to show where the gaps are.

How this family protection calculator works

It combines three separate questions into one view. The lump-sum gap covers debts and income replacement (the job of life insurance). The monthly income gap is what income protection would replace if you couldn't work. The emergency fund gap is cash savings, not insurance — your first line of defence for short setbacks.

To go deeper on any one area, use the focused life insurance calculator or income protection calculator.
