What are the benefits?
•••
Life:
The insurance pays the outstanding balance on the loan in the event that your customer dies.
Accident or Sickness:
If your customer has an accident or falls ill and can’t work, the monthly instalments on the credit agreement are paid for an agreed period of time. Where the instalment is not fixed, such as with a credit card, an agreed percentage of the total balance is paid each month.
Involuntary Unemployment:
If your customer is made unemployed, the monthly instalments on the credit agreement are either paid for an agreed period of time, or an agreed percentage is covered where the installment isn’t fixed. Policies sometimes also cover self-employed people if their business should fail.
Product Enhancements:
Cover may be provided for cash sums if your customer stays overnight in hospital, or the full balance is paid if they’re diagnosed with a critical or terminal illness. Voluntarily giving up work to become a full-time carer to a family member may also be classed as involuntary unemployment.
