Designed especially for the over 50 market Tesco Finance has launched a new life insurance policy that will leave a guaranteed tax free lump sum upon claiming.
There is no medical needed as long as applicants are aged between 50 and 75 and all customers who purchase the policy before 26 June also receive a GBP20 gift voucher. Applying for the Tesco Finance life insurance policy is really easy, using the phone or online.
Payments into the Tesco Finance insurance policy stop when the person covered reaches 90 years of age but the policy remains valid until death. Typically a 55 year old man who pays GBP10 per month would receive a lump sum of over GBP2,400, while a woman of the same age and paying the same amount would receive over GBP3,000.
The Brazilian arm of Zurich Insurance has just announced the purchase of two insurance companies in the South American country.
The deal, which is worth around GBP120 million, gives Zurich Insurance and 87 percent stake in one company and a 100 percent stake in another. Zurich will make an initial payment of GBP89 million for the two businesses, plus a GBP15 million bancassurance agreement and the potential for a further GBP15 million paid out if performance figures are achieved.
Bancassurance will enable the newly acquired businesses to sell their Zurich Insurance products through local bank branches, a significant opportunity and well worth the amount paid.
A study carried out by Zurich Insurance has found that the people of Britain are keen volunteers and are set to be even more so in the coming year.
The study showed how around 35 percent of British adults are actively involved in voluntary projects. Overall these people spend over 52 million hours each week providing their services as unpaid volunteers. The Zurich Insurance survey also showed that, in the next 12 months the number of volunteers will rise to over 50 percent.
A Zurich Insurance commentator was delighted to see such strength of support for worthy causes across the country but added that this situation should be managed correctly by the organisers. Key factors to consider are effective training for volunteers and ensuring adequate insurance cover is in place, both for the volunteer and public liability.
