Introducing the R12/$1 Life Plan Limited Offer! Buy a Dollar Life Plan policy before 31 March 2016, and get a guaranteed exchange rate of R12/$1 on your premium for the next three years! In November 2014, Discovery Life launched the Dollar Life Plan, a first-to-market offshore life insurance policy that offers clients comprehensive risk protection in US dollars. With the Dollar Life Plan, clients can be sure that their risk protection will remain relevant in the long term, regardless of their changing lifestyle needs. Why offshore life insurance makes sense: 1. Sound long-term financial planning With an offshore life insurance policy, denominated in US dollars, clients are protected against the financial impact of a life-changing event – no matter where they may find themselves in the future. 2. Matching liabilities Many clients either have, or could in the future have, offshore liabilities such as a bond, children’s education costs or estate duty in a foreign country. Clients may also be impacted by a fluctuating rand, which typically results in an increase in the cost of goods and services available locally. Risk protection denominated in dollars is therefore critical to ensure that a client’s liabilities are fully matched. 3. Diversification Discovery Life provides an efficient vehicle for clients to supplement and diversify their retirement savings into offshore markets by allowing them to convert their future health and wellness into a tangible offshore financial asset. Clients can further supplement their retirement savings in dollars through three unique features:
The minimum premium on the Dollar Life Plan has been reduced to $50 per month. This allows more clients to access the benefits of an offshore life insurance policy. You can increase the value of the rand with future certainty! For a limited time only, you will be able to pay the premiums on a new Dollar Life Plan at a substantially lower exchange rate than the market. You will be charged a premium based on a maximum exchange of R12/$1 for the first three years of their policy. This is provided that the exchange rate remains less than R20/$1 And if the exchange rate is higher than (or equal to) R20/$1, you will be charged a premium based on an exchange rate that is 20% less than the rest of the market.

Source: Discovery We take out insurance on our car with the expectation that we will be covered (depending on our specific plan) in the event of an accident. However, there are certain cases where insurance companies refuse to provide cover, due to a number of reasons which will be discussed in this article. Make sure that you don’t fit into any of the cases below, if you want to avoid being in a tricky situation where you don’t get the cover which you agreed to.
Be truthful about previous convictions: It is important to be truthful about previous convictions. If you, as the policy holder, withhold vital information in the hopes of receiving a lower premium, the insurance company will not cover you in the event of an accident if they learn that you have not been truthful. Don’t be misleading about who the main driver of the car is: Often, people try to cut their premium payments by being dishonest about the main driver of the car. This usually happens when an inexperienced or young person is the main driver of the car. Make sure that you are honest about this as it can cause your insurance company to not cover you if you are found out. Inform your insurer about all previous claims: It is important to inform your insurer about all issues regarding previous claims, as by not doing this, you are violating the insurance principal of utmost good faith. This includes the following: any modifications that have been made to the car, which could affect its safety or value; a change in your car’s usage; and providing a false address as to where your car is kept. Report a claim immediately after an accident has happened: If you do not report a claim immediately after your accident has happened, the insurer may rule your claim out and refuse to offer compensation. Therefore, be sure not to wait too long to report an accident and file a claim. In summary, it is important to be honest with your car insurance company, in order to avoid tricky situations where you find yourself being refused cover when you need it most. Follow these basic tips and there will be no need to worry! Source: Carinsuresa |
