What is joint life insurance?

Joint life insurance is a policy that basically covers two lives, but only pays out the sum assured on the first death - then the policy will lapse. If you only need one payout joint cover may be the best option as it tends to be cheaper than buying two separate policies. However, it must be remembered that in the event that one of the policyholders passes on, then the survivor will be left uninsured. In addition, taking out two separate policies (which may not necessarily be that much more expensive) would be easier to administer in the event of separation or divorce. Taking out two policies also tends to bring about fewer inheritance tax issues.
