Insurance Adequacy Visualiser
ProLast updated 2026-05-03
What it does
Open Insurance and the adequacy panel compares:
- Recommended cover — based on your income, mortgage / liabilities, dependents, and standard income-replacement years
- Actual cover — what your policies record across life, TPD, and income protection
For each line, you see the gap (or surplus) and a percentage of recommended.
How it works
The recommendation uses widely-published methodologies (income replacement years × annual income, debt + dependents adjustments). Frank does NOT recommend specific cover amounts — the figure is presented as a sense-check, with a beefy "information only" wall above it.
Sharing with your planner
If you have a financial planner already invited as a collaborator (Settings → Sharing), the panel surfaces a "✓ Your planner has access" note. Otherwise it shows a "Share with my planner →" link that takes you to the invite flow.
The intent is honest: insurance is a regulated advice domain, and the right next step on a flagged gap is a conversation with a licensed planner, not a Frank-driven action.
What's NOT here
- No prescriptive recommendation ("take out $X of life cover")
- No specific product names (no insurer names, no policy comparisons)
- No "buy now" CTA
Per AFSL safety rules, Frank's adequacy visualiser is strictly informational. The advice piece belongs with a licensed adviser.
