in Insurance & life assurance
Me and my husband are new parents (and newly Wed) we have no assets so woyld like to take out a life insurance policy for security for our daughter but we both feel overwhelmed with it all. Is there anywhere where different options are explained simply?

    A mortgage or financial advisor can explain the different options available to you.
    Im sure websites can do it but they could throw up more questions than answers.

    There's some information on The Money Advice Service website - but I think you'll probably want to see an independent financial adviser.
