Can mountain climbers get life insurance?

Yes, mountain climbers can typically obtain life insurance, but the availability and terms might vary based on several factors. Insurance companies often assess the risk associated with the individual’s climbing activities, including the type of climbs, experience level, safety measures, and frequency of climbing. Consulting with insurance providers specialising in high-risk activities, like Sports FS, can help climbers find suitable coverage.

How much does income protection cost?

The cost of income protection varies depending on factors such as your age, occupation, health, and the level of cover you choose. Premiums are typically higher for those in riskier jobs or with pre-existing health conditions. Generally, the cost can range from a small percentage of your income to more substantial amounts, but it’s important to compare policies to find one that balances cost with the level of protection you need.
