A payment protection insurance is an insurance solution to protect yourself against the financial consequences of death, disability, unemployment and divorce. It relieves the policyholder and the relatives as well as heirs of the repayment instalments in the event of occupational disability, involuntary unemployment or death, over the entire term of the loan. What is new is that even in the case of divorce, the loan repayments are covered by the insurance over a maximum term of 6 month. For investors, the payment protection insurance forms a reinsurance for their investment and is a possible decision criterion when choosing their preferred credit projects.

The borrower is compulsorily insured against the risk of death. In this case the insurance company bears the remaining debt towards the lender. In the case of insurance with coverage in the event of unemployment, disability and divorce, your monthly loan instalments are covered until the end of the term in the event of an insured event (a maximum of 6 monthly instalments, in the event of divorce). Details can be found in the product information and the terms and conditions.
