It takes a “radical change” – mostly of the negative type – for most homeowners to think about applying for protection, shows research from MetLife.
Of the 2,000 quizzed, 31% of people said that becoming ill would make them look at taking out protection, 25% said it would take a change of employment status or job, and 25% an accident of some kind.
Just 16% replied that having children would force them to consider protection, and 6% that getting married would.
In terms of mortgage holders specifically, MetLife says that 14% of those asked reported regret at not taking out a mortgage protection policy.
