Loan Insurance

Loan Protection Insurance is payable on the death of an eligible member, subject to certain
restrictions on balance limits, loan and interest balances being cleared, leaving no liability
attached to the estate of a deceased member.

This means that members do not have to be worried about leaving debts to their loved ones
in the event of untimely death, or serious accident.

Key Points To Be Aware Of:

  • If a member who is eligible for insurance cover, and has signed the credit agreement, dies with a loan outstanding, the loan balance is paid in full by the insurer.
  • The insurance benefit payable is the amount of the member’s outstanding loan balance
  • St. Joseph’s Aviation Credit Union provides this insurance at no extra cost on the lives of its’ borrowing members.
  • Cover ceases on the member’s 80th birthday.

Repayment Protection Insurance (RPI)
