The demand for health insurance, income protection and life insurance is expected to rise significantly in 2025, according to a recent survey*.
The study, which gathered insights from 250 UK financial advisers, highlights a growing awareness amongst clients of the need for comprehensive protection cover.
Income protection is set to see the most substantial growth, with 51% of advisers predicting increased demand, while 31% expect it to remain steady and only 18% foresee a decline.
Similarly, life insurance demand is anticipated to rise, with 44% of advisers forecasting growth, 37% expecting no change and 19% predicting a drop.
Private health insurance also follows this trend, with 40% of advisers anticipating an increase, 32% expecting stability and 28% forecasting a decline.

The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount you invested. The past is not a guide to future performance and past performance may not necessarily be repeated. Financial protection policies typically have no cash in value at any time and cover will cease at the end of the term. If premiums stop, then cover will lapse.
