LoanProtector® Life And Disability Insurance

 

Why do I need protection?

Why LoanProtector makes sense when it comes to protecting you and your family.

Q: Why do I need protection?

A: If you lose your job, any group disability insurance coverage through work terminates, you and your family could be left without coverage.

Q: Do I need more coverage if I already have coverage through work?

A: Typically, employers only provide coverage that amounts to 1 to 2 times your salary in the event of your death, and about two-thirds of your income if you become disabled.

  • Would you be able to manage with a third less income and increased expenses?
  • And, if you leave your job or become self-employed, you lose your coverage

LoanProtector life and disability insurance can take care of your debt while allowing your existing employee coverage to take care of your family.

Q: Couldn't my estate just sell my assets if I die?

A: They could, but are those assets enough to cover your debts and look after your family's immediate and long-term needs? And what would happen if your family had to suddenly sell your assets in a down market to pay off your debts? LoanProtector life and disability insurance means that your existing financial plan can remain intact.

Q: Do I need insurance for a small RSP loan?

A: Although your RSP loan or line of credit may be small, it is an additional liability. For just cents a day, LoanProtector life and disability insurance can pay off your debt in the event of your death or take care of your payments if you become disabled.

Q: Isn't term insurance better value?

A: It's true that term life insurance can provide for your family's future and may be an important part of your financial plan. But LoanProtector is a quick, convenient and cost effective way to ensure your debts are looked after. The cost of LoanProtector versus a term policy is usually much lower over the life of the loan. Other features of LoanProtector are:

  • Coverage is usually automatic
  • You only pay for the coverage you need
  • Life premiums are based on the outstanding loan balance
  • Offers you the protection of single or joint life and disability coverage
