Which company are you with? We had to take out insurance with ours but it was included in our payments. Nothing to worry about.

If it is funded from the payments I wouldn't worry --- if you do pass during the IVA at least your estate will be free of debt.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I didn’t have life insurance for the entire time of my IVA (only finished earlier this month) and wasn’t asked to take it out although I do not know the ins and outs on reasons you may be asked to take it. It’s probably not a bad thing to have though if they account for it within your payments.
IVA completed (with funds paid to date) 4th October 2017.......Completion certificate received 23rd December 2017 :D
