What is a funeral policy?Like other insurance products, funeral insurance is a way of shielding yourself against losses caused by unforeseen events. But unlike say a car insurance policy where an accident can or cannot happen for the duration that you own the vehicle, death is a certainty. One wise man said that two things are guaranteed in this life; death and taxes. Viewed from this angle, funeral cover becomes more saving for something that will happen, only that its exact time is unknown. In other words, funeral policies are a very shrewd investment. One that will keep you from pressing your friends and other relatives into helping raise funds when you should be grieving in peace.

Funeral policies are bountiful in South Africa, and many insurance companies have funeral plans among their products. To find the right partner for this investment you need to consider your budget; how much can you spare for premiums towards such a policy from your paycheck? You also need to consider the kind of send-off you want to give your loved one. To get a good payoff you will probably need to contribute sizeable premiums; you need to determine if your level of income can sustain these.
