The reasons for the sharp increase in the average amounts of cover is the improvement in products available. The monthly premiums are now the lowest ever available and length of policies the longest ever available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Chris Morgan, Lead Financial Adviser of Unusual Risks,\nMortgage &amp; Insurance Services said;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u2018The average sum assured has remained fairly stable\nfor HIV Life Assurance over the last 10 years. However, this has improved\nsignificantly in the last 12 months, due to more competitive premiums and\nbetter terms being made available to consumers. We feel this is a very good way\nto celebrate a decade of HIV Life Assurance being available in the market place\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u2018We\nare noticing significant improvements in both the monthly premiums available to\nconsumers and the length of the policies being made available. So, for example,\nthe maximum term now being offered is more likely to be between 20 and 25 years\ninstead of between 10 and 15 that may have been previously offered by insurance\ncompanies\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris Morgan and Unusual Risks have campaigned on behalf of the HIV\nCommunity for the last two decades, firstly for the introduction of HIV Life\nAssurance, followed by the lengthening of policy terms and then most recently\nthe reduction of monthly premiums. HIV Life Assurance now has the lowest\npremiums and longest terms ever offered to consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In their recent HIV Insurance Provider Survey they reported that 75%* of\nLife Insurance Companies now offer some form of cover to people living with\nHIV. This figure has also steadily improved over the last 10 years. Unusual\nRisks are very proud to have played the lead role in improving the\naccessibility of financial products for people with HIV over the last decade. <strong><em>I<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Unusual Risks are the U<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>K\u2019s leading financial advisers offering advice to clients living with HIV or Hepatitis on&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>HIV Life Assurance, HIV Life Insurance, HIV Mortgages, Hepatitis C Life Assurance, Hepatitis C Life Insurance, Hepatitis C Mortgages.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>They are also the UK\u2019s leading experts at planning Life Assurance and Mortgages for HIV Positive Families and are able to assist HIV Positive people looking for advice on their Pensions and Investments.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>For more information about these services please contact&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>Unusual Risks Mortgage &amp; Insurance Services by phone 0845 474 3075.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>Email&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><a href=\"mailto:Enquiries@unusualrisks.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Enquiries@unusualrisks.co.uk<\/strong><\/a><em><strong>&nbsp;or visit us online at&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unusualrisks.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.unusualrisks.co.uk\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unusual Risks, Financial Advisers to the HIV Community have today published the results of their tenth annual research into the Average&nbsp;and Sum&nbsp;Assured&nbsp;of Life Assurance that HIV Positive men and women are insuring themselves for.
