Insurance is designed to pay out when an unpredictable event causes a loss. Everybody needs insurance to safeguard against such unpredictable events. If an event like this occurs, then it is possible that dependents or even the insured person could suffer or be unable to bear the loss.
In some cases, the state provides insurance by, for example, paying incapacity benefit if you can't work due to illness or passing bereavement benefits to a widowed husband or wife. However, state benefits are low and there are a number of tests that must be passed to be able to qualify. Often an employer may provide a life assurance scheme through work, but you always check whether this cover is appropriate for your needs. Employer benefits might even include income protection insurance and/or private medical insurance.
