About this Unit
Insurance underpins and ensures that capital is available to meet the client’s or their dependents financial needs should an insurable event happen. Adequate and affordable personal, property and business assurance means that client’s goals can still be achieved should injury, death or other loss occur. It strongly contributes to the overall success of any financial plan.
This core unit introduces students to the use of insurance to manage risk. It aims to identify, evaluate and manage risk in relation to a financial plan. In addition, a thorough coverage of available insurance products will be undertaken.
