Kevin Paterson, sales and marketing director at Assurant Intermediary, comments:
“We are delighted to be able to offer unemployment-only policies to the market again.
"We have listened to what brokers tell us, and this launch is yet another example of how Assurant Intermediary is committed to bringing products to market that match the needs of brokers and their clients and that seek to add real value.”
The policy is renewable annually and covers a maximum monthly benefit of 125 percent of mortgage or rental payments or up to £2,000 or 60 percent of normal gross monthly income (whichever is the lowest). The unemployment-only benefit is available for up to 12 months.
