some tips
There are many option you can look at. What is your most important requirement? Is it protection? Is it returns?
You can get, complete life or element trust and buy term.
This is what you should do. Do NOT below any circumstances whatsoever take out another endowment policy. They hold underperformed terribly and they are in a minute totally discredited as an investment vehicle.
Instead, take out a Term Assurance policy (if you want destruction cover) - this will cost you peanuts, particularly if you are beneath 30. That covers the life assurance segment. Then, put the rest of the monthly amount that you want to save, into any a Cash ISA (currently 5.80% TAX FREE available from national savings) or into an Equity (shares) ISA.
So, if you were planning to amass lb50 a month for 15 years, put lb15 per month into insurance (nothing back unless you die - that's why it's SO cheap!) and lb35 per month into the ISA. In a Cash ISA (for example), lb35 per month for 15 years at 5.80% would hand over you a tax-free cash sum of lb10,186.
Sound accurate for lb35 a month? It is! For the insurance side of it, apply online (very easy) at Virgin Insurance. For the ISA, go to your local Post Office or you can probably apply online - National Savings and Investments.
I hope this help.
