The fears of a bird flu pandemic have encouraged me to assess my need for life insurance for myself and my wife.
I was reading this document regarding preparedness:
"It would be prudent to select only the bluest of blue chip insurers, as the economic impact of a major pandemic will not be predictable."
Who in the UK could be regarded as a rock-solid blue-chip insurer? How can I assess this?
Furthermore, I read in the Economist that Aon Insurance stated that a pandemic would be an uninsured event. Does that effectively mean that if myself/wife were to die due to the pandemic, life insurance would not be paid?
Thanks in advance,
J Franklin.
