Loan payment protection insurance is helpful in the following situations:
 
  You are unable to work due to a disability caused by an accident or health condition.
  You lose your job.
  You are temporarily out of work due to your own or your child’s illness.
  In the case of the borrower’s death, the insurance compensates the lender for up to 24 months of loan payments.

The loan payment protection insurance fee is calculated as a percentage of your monthly loan payment. This means that the insurance costs are linked to the size of your loan obligation and provide the necessary protection tailored to your specific needs.
For example:
Loan amount: €4,000, contract period: 48 months, number of repayments: 48, fxed annual interest rate: 11.19% on the loan amount. In this example, the monthly loan payment would be €121, and the insurance premium would be €9.68.

Other questions

The annual percentage rate helps to compare the costs of various types of loans, taking into account additional costs as well as interest. The rate is the average total cost of a loan to the debtor, taking into account the loan amount, the period, the interest rate and the contract fee.
