There is a Credit Life Insurance that covers the applicant for death and
permanent disability. This comes with our loan offering. In the event of
death your Credit Life Insurance cover will pay off the outstanding balance
on your loan. Over and above that a lump sum funeral benefit of 300 USD will
be paid. The benefit is only payable at the death of the borrower subject to
the terms and conditions of the Master Policy and the following terms and
conditions: :
a. A beneficiary, not younger than 18 years to whom the benefit shall be
paid, should be nominated at inception stage.
b. The funeral benefit can only be paid by Electronic Funds Transfer to the
bank account nominated.
c. In the event of a claim the following supporting documents must be
provided:
• Certified death certificate of the Insured person
• Certified copy of the Identify document of the Nominated Beneficiary
• Proof of physical address of the Nominated Beneficiary (e.9., Utility Bill,
Affidavit)
NB: It is important to note Credit Life does not cover acts of suicide
as such the bank can claim from the deceased estate.
