This insurance policy is specifically designed for the loan clients of the financial institutions.

Borrowers and their family can have peace of mind and payment protection by availing Loan Protection Insurance Policy offered by Bhutan Insurance Limited at a very minimum cost. As most employees avail loan by pledging their post-retirement benefits, should misfortune happen to the clients, their family members will be hard hit especially if the post-retirement benefits of the bread earner have to be adjusted against the outstanding loans. Thus through the Loan Protection Insurance cover, the pecuniary interest of the bereaved family members will be protected to the extent of outstanding principle loan balance.

The policy provides the following covers: In the event of insured:

1. Permanent Total Disability due to accident, Bhutan Insurance will pay the outstanding principle loan balance as on the event of the claim or sum insured whichever is less.

2. Demise due to Accidental, Bhutan Insurance will pay the outstanding principle loan balance as on the event of the claim or sum insured whichever is less.
