Income Protection cover (ASU) has many names, among them Income Protection Insurance (ASU) and Short Term Income Protection Insurance but they all do the same job and this is to protect your income should accident, sickness or unemployment cause you to lose it for a period of time.

The Income Protection cover will allow you to protect a certain percentage of your income to a maximum monthly benefit and this is then paid to you in tax free instalments up to 12 consecutive months. This can then be used for any purpose you want, such as paying your mortgage, your rent, buying food, car running costs etc.

Most Income Protection cover policies limit their maximum benefit to 50% of your net monthly income to a maximum monthly benefit of £1,500 but the Ant Insurance Income Protection cover allows you to protect up to 60% of your net monthly income to a maximum monthly benefit of £2,000. So by choosing the Ant Insurance Income Protection cover you can protect the greater majority of your living costs while you find work or recover from illness.
