The CLARITY Framework™ pillar
I - Insurance & Risk
Understand exposures that could interrupt the plan.
Insurance & Risk organizes life insurance, disability risk, estate liquidity, longevity, market timing, and other events that can disrupt a plan. It frames risk as a planning input, not only as a product question.
Planning questions
What this pillar helps answer
- What event could disrupt the plan most severely?
- Would dependants have enough resources if income stopped?
- Could estate costs create a liquidity issue?
- Which risks are retained, reduced, or transferred?
Framework context
How it connects
This pillar is part of a broader planning picture. A result in one area often changes another: cash flow affects savings, debt affects flexibility, taxes affect account choices, and personal goals shape what tradeoffs are acceptable.
