Risk insurance against job loss due to a mortgage


Since the mortgage loan is designed for several years, it is difficult to be confident in maintaining your current job in such a distant future. And the banks themselves strongly recommend purchasing several insurances for such a loan, including against job loss, while reducing loan rates.

Do you need to insure yourself in case of loss of solvency?

The answer to this question is more likely Yes than No. And that's why:

  1. Recently, the economic and financial situation in the country leaves much to be desired.
  2. A person, left without income, first of all spends his savings on the essentials for life, and not on paying off debt.
  3. Not many people have rich relatives and friends who are willing to happily lend money to an unemployed person.

If you lose your source of income and if you have mortgage loan, a person will certainly get stuck in exorbitant debts. To prevent this from happening, banks began to offer a new job loss insurance service, which is of interest to both parties.

Often, having fallen into a debt trap, bank clients ignore loan payments, simply not depositing them into the bank account. This may also be due to job loss. The reasons why such workers are fired are very diverse - from the whim of the employer to layoffs. As a result, a person loses his only source of financing and faces the destruction of his long-term plans. If you decide to take out a loan, job loss insurance – best measure preventing debts and problems with the bank. Let's look at this procedure in more detail.

What is Job Loss Insurance?

This is a kind of service. Its essence is that the insurance company pays money to the bank instead of the borrower who suddenly lost his source of income. Payments are made over 6-12 months, depending on the individual situation and the selected program. It turns out that by using such a service, a person can calmly get involved in his own employment, placing the problem of repaying the debt to the bank on the insurer.

Usually, when issuing a loan, banks themselves offer to arrange insurance. Sometimes, without meeting this condition, issuing a loan is completely impossible. Most often, a financial institution enters into a contractual relationship with a third-party company, which will provide assistance if the borrower experiences force majeure circumstances. This is due to the fact that if the client loses solvency, the bank will still receive a profit, but it will be paid not by the borrower, but by the insurer.

Insurance cases in which you can count on support

Many borrowers, due to an incorrect interpretation of the concept of “insured event,” are faced with a misunderstanding of the money return procedure. Dismissal due to violation of labor discipline standards or personal expression of the employee’s will does not imply payment of insurance. In general, the set of insurance situations is established individually in each organization. But there is a basic list of cases that are insured:

  • liquidation of the company in which the client worked;
  • reduction in personnel or workforce;
  • termination of contractual relations due to a change in the owner of the company;
  • employee leaving the workplace due to circumstances that do not depend on the will of the parties.

In these cases, job loss insurance will apply. This only means that when you get into difficult life situation the partner will help out by depositing money into the bank instead of the client.

Cases when payment is refused

There are situations when the borrower will receive an outright refusal to pay the insurance; here is an approximate list of them:

  • dismissal due to one’s own will;
  • violation of labor discipline leading to leaving work;
  • the employee receives payments from the employment service;
  • loss of ability to work due to the fault of an employee.

How important is it to take out insurance?

Insurance services can be issued for any type of lending. Moreover, some banks will generally refuse to issue a loan if an agreement with the insurer is not finalized. The question is whether the client himself needs to enter into such an agreement; perhaps there is another way out of the situation. Let's consider the need to conclude this agreement for various types of lending.

  1. Consumer loan. Since it is issued for a short period, the borrower’s financial situation is unlikely to change. Therefore, banks do not always apply for a consumer loan and demand compulsory insurance from losing their job, act honestly.
  2. Car loan. This loan is issued on average for 3-5 years, that is, for a period for which financial income can be predicted more or less clearly and transparently. Therefore, taking out job loss insurance is a purely voluntary matter.
  3. Credit card. If you are using credit card and pay off debts, keeping within Grace period, that is, almost immediately after spending, the use of this type of insurance is impractical.
  4. Mortgage. This loan is issued for a minimum of 10 years, so in order to avoid unforeseen circumstances, you should enter into several insurance contracts, including insurance in case of job loss.

It is irrational to enter into such an agreement if you have good friends who will lend money or vouch for you, or if you have a reserve amount “for a rainy day”, which will be used to pay off debts if you lose your job. If you nevertheless decide on this type of insurance, the most affordable option concluding an agreement - directly contacting an employee of the bank where you are applying for a loan and expressing your desire to conclude this agreement. Although, you can bypass the bank by starting an independent search for good insurance companies. This will be less noticeable in terms of money, but more noticeable in terms of time and labor.

What are the advantages of an insurance contract?

Of course, the conclusion of this agreement is useful. After all, in modern world When crises come wave after wave, the reduction or liquidation of enterprises is not something out of the ordinary. Therefore, you cannot be sure of the stability of your own financial situation. In this regard, concluding an insurance contract has a certain number of advantages:

  • loan payments are made using the insurer's funds;
  • there are no risks of damage to your credit history due to delays;
  • you get the opportunity to assign responsibility for the loan to a third party while you search for a new job;
  • if you lose your main job, your relatives and guarantors will not be responsible for returning the money to the bank;
  • Drawing up a job loss assistance agreement is a quick and inexpensive process.

But it is important to find a good insurance company, which, in the event of an insured event, will not shirk its responsibilities, but, on the contrary, will meet halfway and provide assistance.

Features of concluding an insurance agreement

You can enter into such an agreement during the process of applying for a loan in order to protect yourself and the banking organization from colossal financial costs. Unfortunately, in our country, self-insurance has not yet gained widespread popularity, however, if you have concerns about the near liquidation of the enterprise or layoffs, you can buy a policy under which you will receive support in the event of dismissal.

To create a relationship with an insurer, you must meet a minimum set of requirements:

  1. Citizenship of the Russian Federation.
  2. The age range is 18-60 years and 18-55 years for men and women respectively. Some organizations require that the borrower's minimum age be 21 years.
  3. The length of service worked at the last workplace is at least 3 months.
  4. Total work experience – from 1 year.
  5. An important role is played by the fact of concluding an open-ended labor contract between the parties.

This is just a template set of conditions that must be met, but in some financial institutions There are auxiliary requirements that are prescribed and negotiated on an individual basis.

Cost of insurance services

The price of insurance services depends on the company with which you plan to enter into an agreement. In some cases, the cost indicator will be calculated as a percentage, and sometimes it is a fixed value. To pick up best option, you need to familiarize yourself with all the offers in detail and make your choice. Typically, the price of insurance ranges from 0.8 to 5% of the loan amount. If we're talking about about a fixed value, it is equal to 200 rubles. per month Sometimes the bank requires you to take out insurance and pay for it in a one-time payment, which averages 5-10 thousand rubles.

Unfortunately, in our country the cost of obtaining lending services is quite high. This is due to the special mentality of local citizens. The lion's share of our compatriots will never in their lives agree to pay their hard-earned money unless there are visible reasons for it. Therefore, citizens of the Russian Federation turn to insurance companies only in extreme cases, when the most terrible prospect is about to come.

Procedures for receiving payment in case of an insured event

In order for your dismissal to be accompanied by prompt compensation for the loan amount, you need to register with the Central Insurance Fund and contact the insurance office, taking with you a certain package of documents:

  • copy and original passport;
  • original and photocopied form of the work book;
  • employment contract between the parties;
  • credit agreement with a banking organization;
  • certificate from a financial institution about debt;
  • a document from the employment center indicating that you are registered;
  • a certificate taken from your previous place of work, characterizing your average monthly salary.

Insurance against redundancy at work is the best way preventing risks for people who decide to take out a loan. Therefore, you will not have to worry much about penalties, penalties and increasing debt in a situation if you suddenly lose your job. The set of requirements for a person concluding an insurance contract is small, so you can enter into an agreement and feel psychologically comfortable.

Job loss insurance is a service of insurance companies that can be used when drawing up a loan agreement. And if an insured event occurs, the insurance organization will pay monthly loan payments for a certain period of time, during which the insured can find a new job and restore his financial position. Job loss insurance prevents you from ruining your job credit history, which will have a good impact on the bank’s positive decisions on issuing loans in the future.

Job loss insurance is a convenient service for those who are not confident in the stability of their organization. The company may close or reduce its workforce, causing the person to lose their ability to pay the loan.

The bank, as a lending company, is not interested in all these complexities of the client’s financial situation. The banking organization acts only in accordance with the rules and conditions that were specified when drawing up the loan agreement. Therefore, even if you lose your job, you will still have to repay the loan.

This is where job loss insurance comes in. This is a voluntary service and is not required when signing a loan agreement. Therefore, in order to conclude this type of insurance, you should check with the loan agreement specialist whether they have agreements with insurance companies for this type of service.

By insuring yourself for this type of service, you don’t have to be afraid that something will happen to the company where you work. If one of the insurance events occurs, you will need to report the occurrence of the insurance event within the time period specified in the insurance contract (5-30 days): contact the insurance office or call them by phone.

You will also need documents confirming the fact of the event, a copy of the work record book, a layoff order or other types of documents established by the insurer. After the documents arrive at the main office of the insurance agent, within 5-10 working days they recognize that the risk under the insurance contract has materialized. And they will either make a one-time payment for 6-12 months, or they will pay compensation on a monthly basis in the amount of the monthly payment under the loan agreement.

As a rule, insurance in case of job loss is an individual type of contract, i.e., it is drawn up between the client and the insurance agent. Accordingly, the beneficiary is also a client, and payments will be made to the account of the client, who has the right to dispose of the amount at his own discretion. The amount, frequency, sum insured and premium amount are specified in the policy, so the conditions may vary slightly for each insurer. All necessary information can be obtained from the policy and insurance rules.

What is considered an insured event?

If you insure yourself against possible job loss, this does not mean that you can simply quit of your own free will, and the loan will be paid by the insurance organization. The policy clearly states all events that can be considered insurable. These may include:

  1. Liquidation of the enterprise. If your organization has ceased operations, you will have to look for a new job. Due to this Insurance Company will pay off the loan while you are looking.
  2. Staff reduction. Many organizations optimize the business process and production at the enterprise. In this regard, one or another department can often be abolished due to its low efficiency. If the insured was fired due to staff reduction, this is an insured event.
  3. Change of company owners. The company may be acquired by new owners. They often establish their own regulations and rules, which may not be to the liking of the organization's employees. You have the right to quit and start looking for new job is an insured event.
  4. Termination of the contract for other reasons. This clause includes cases of termination of an employment contract in which neither the employee nor the employer can be to blame. This may include conscription into the army or deterioration of health, which prevents further fulfillment of work obligations.

What is not considered an insured event?

The policy also specifies those risks for which it is not possible to receive compensation from the insurance company. These usually include:

  1. Dismissal at your own request. When an employee of an organization notifies the employer that he is quitting in writing two weeks before the date of the intended dismissal.
  2. Violation of labor discipline. If an employee fails to cope with the duties prescribed in the regulations for his position. And also if the employee violated the rules, charter, regulations of his company, and therefore was fired.
  3. Causing harm to health or property while under the influence of alcohol, drugs or toxic substances. Even if an employee received an injury due to which he can no longer continue working, but the injury was caused by alcohol or other intoxication, this will not be recognized as an insured event.

Types of loan agreements covered by the policy

A job loss insurance policy can be issued for any type of loan from a bank. This is especially true if the loan is long-term, since it is quite problematic to predict whether the company where the insured person is employed will operate stably.

You can also take out job loss insurance for a mortgage, car loan or consumer credit. The insurance contract can be drawn up immediately when drawing up the loan agreement.

Mortgage

A mortgage agreement differs not only in its long-term duration, but also in the amount the bank issues. Therefore, clients of such banks often try to protect themselves as much as possible from various types risks.

When applying for a mortgage, only a property insurance policy is required, but in addition, at your own request, you can insure against job loss, insure your life and health, and so on.

If an insured event occurs, you will need to confirm the fact of the event by providing a certain list of documents to your insurer. This may include:

  • passport of the insured person;
  • a certified copy or original work book with a note about loss of employment;
  • a copy of the employment contract that was terminated;
  • certificate of availability of a mortgage loan.

Requirements from the insurer

Not all clients can take out the policy. It is necessary that the client meets the minimum requirements of the insurance organization. These may vary slightly from company to company, but in general:

  • general guardian of work for at least a year;
  • work experience in the last place for at least 3 months;
  • the age of the insured person is more than 21 years, but not more than 55 and 60 years for women and men, respectively;
  • the official nature of the work, i.e. employment must be formalized in accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

Is such an agreement necessary?

Everyone has the right to decide for themselves whether to insure against certain probable events or not. The policy, as a rule, has a small cost, depending on the insurer’s tariffs and the size of the loan from the bank. Such insurance is relevant for long-term lending.

If loan agreements are drawn up for six months to a year, then the likelihood of an insured event occurring is extremely low. It is also worth determining for yourself what will happen if you lose your job. Will you be able to repay the loan agreement from alternative sources

income?
