The results of a recent survey of 1000 New Zealanders gauge their attitudes toward income insurance are far from stellar.
Intended to check whether any progress had been made on a $650 billion underinsurance problem identified in 2013 by the Financial Services Council, the Trade Me study showed very little change four years on: While 88% had vehicle insurance and 74% had home insurance, only 51% had life insurance and just 41% health insurance.
