Hi everyone, we are back with Season 8 of the Practical Protection Podcast and today it is all about income protection. We have Jo Miller, Katie Crook-Davies and Andrew Wibberley joining us from the Income Protection Task Force. Their job is to promote income protection to consumers, encourage advisers to engage in income protection conversations more and work with insurers to improve our industry.
Last year the IPTF held their Income Protection Awareness Week that was a resounding success. Each day had a different focus on income protection to better help advisers working in the mortgage, protection and wealth space. They are back with this year’s IPAW starting on the 18 September at 12 noon.
To get us all ready for it we have been chatting all things income protection in the most recent episode.
The key takeaways:
Income protection sales are growing whilst life and critical illness cover policies are starting to slow down.Key areas for change are educating people at a younger age, the need for collaboration and the need for new perspectives in underwriting to reflect current social behaviour.Through adviser demand there are now more options for income protection than ever before.
You can sign up for this year’s IPAW at the IPTF website and you will be able to claim up to 5 hours CPD for the week.
Next time I will have Justin Harper with me from MetLife and we will be talking more about income protection.
Remember, if you are listening to this as part of your work, you can claim a CPD certificate on our website, thanks to our sponsors Octo Members.
If you want to know more about how to arrange protection insurance, take a look at my 13 hour CPD Protection Insurance in Practice course here and 1 hour CPD Protection Competency Exam here.
