This week I am speaking with Alan Knowles, husband, co-director of Cura Financial Services, Chair of the PDG and the 2020 winner of the Protection Review’s Protection Adviser of the Year.

Alan is doing an income protection masterclass, talking about how versatile these policies are and how they can sometimes have a bad rep, for not being particularly accessible. But, Alan goes through 4 case studies that show how speaking with an adviser, can truly help people with higher risks to get income protection.

The key takeaways:

  1. A case study of income protection for someone with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and type 1 diabetes.
  2. A case study of income protection for a person living with bipolar disorder.
  3. A case study of income protection for a rock climber.
  4. A case study of income protection for someone living with Antiphospholipid Syndrome.

Next week, will be the last episode of series 2 and we have some exciting changes coming up for season 3 in 2021, so keep checking our twitter and facebook pages for updates. I’ll be chatting with Matt Rann about his career in underwriting, discussing how underwriting has changed over the last 40 years.
