What’s life insurance?

Life insurance can help protect the financial security of your loved ones. It helps pay off your mortgage balance at the time of your death. Plus, accidental dismemberment coverage is included at no additional cost.

What’s disability insurance?

In the event of an illness or accident, your disability insurance will automatically make your mortgage payments when you can no longer work. This way, you can keep your savings for emergency expenses such as hospital bills, transportation and professional care.

Benefits of taking cover.

It’s all taken care of.

  • Payment of your mortgage instalments in the event of illness or accident.

  • Payment of your mortgage balance upon death.

Covering unexpected moments.

Accidental death coverage at no additional cost from the time you sign the application and during the application process.

Payments without surprises.

Your premium amount is determined when the loan is signed. It stays the same until the end of the term, until the loan is refinanced, or until the initial insurance coverage is charged.

Added benefits.

  • When you renew under the same conditions, your premiums will be adjusted without the need to provide proof of health.

  • Coverage tailored to your needs that gives you peace of mind.
