Life insurance for self employed

A Life Insurance policy may be even more important for someone who has recently become self employed, as this type of insurance can provide the loved ones of the policy-holder with a financial pay-out. Additionally, someone who has recently become self-employed is unlikely to be able to rely on the pay-out from Death in Service cover; which is typically provided by an employer.
