Unusual Risk are the UK’s leading specialists for HIV Life Insurance, HIV Life Assurance and HIV Income Protection. We have been serving the LGBT+ and HIV Communities since 1999.

Our Lead Financial Adviser, Chris Morgan led a decade long campaign for the introduction of HIV Life Assurance and HIV Life Insurance for people living with HIV in the UK.

He was a consultant to the Association of British Insurers for over five years and served on their HIV Life Insurance Working Group – which led to the introduction of Life Insurance in the UK.

In 2017 Chris rejoined the ABI working group, assisting them with their latest Best Practice guidelines and agreeing to write a new HIV and Life Insurance consumer guide.

More recently Chris has been working towards equality for People Living with HIV with regards to Income Protection and HIV Critical Illness Cover.
