International Group Life Insurance

Protect your team - and your business - with international group life insurance
International group life insurance is designed to provide for your expatriate and local employees' dependents in the event of their death, with the international insurance cover providing a lump sum and/or income to any dependents on death. More importantly it provides the employee with peace of mind that, should the worst happen, their close family will not be left to struggle with financial difficulties.
The benefit of international group life insurance
The benefit of international group life insurance is one we all hope will never be needed, but having it in place demonstrates care for the welfare of your expat and local employees and their families.
No matter what size or type your organisation is, you can have a flexibly designed employee benefit program. You can access advice both online and offline to ensure you get precisely what you want. Other expatriate benefits available include our international disability insurance. Let us know if you've any questions about any of our international insurance services.
You'll be tapping into Bellwood Prestbury International experience to ensure that the design and implementation of a complete range of international and local employee benefits for your overseas expatriate workforce, including any international group life insurance provision, is on target.
In less developed countries more and more expat employers are looking beyond local insurance companies, as the market is often in its infancy with insufficient capacity to underwrite the amounts involved. You can choose to use us to cover local companies (subject to local regulations) if they require the security and quality offered by an international insurance company.
What are the advantages of our international group life insurance policy?
Good expat and local employment benefits can make the difference between keeping your key staff and losing them to a competitor, but there are many advantages both for you as an employer and for the staff that receive them.
International group life insurance for employers:
You can recruit the best expatriate and local candidates - and keep them.
You will provide security and transfer the risk without putting an unacceptable strain on company resources.
You can usually claim the costs as a business expense.
An international group life insurance policy can be put in place quickly with the minimum of paperwork and with little time or cost involved in administration.
International group life insurance for the employee:
The biggest benefit for most employees is peace of mind. To know that their financial security and that of their dependants has been provided for is priceless.
Should they have to claim, any lump sum payable is normally free from tax.
What cover does international group life insurance provide?
You are free to select the level of international insurance benefit for your employees, such as a fixed sum or a multiple of salary.
Your final decision may be driven by cost, but other factors will inevitably have an influence:
your employees expectations,
the employment philosophy of your organisation,
your company's desire to provide a realistic benefit,
the group life insurance cover provided by your competitors.

Personal Accident Insurance

Personal accident insurance to cover death, disablementand disability
If your personnel are visiting war torn countries the facility to secure high risk personal accident insurance is top priority. You can be confident that personal accident insurance cover can be provided for any region/country in the world by using our international connections and extensive personal accident insurance knowledge. How personal accident insurance works
Our personal accident insurance cover is extremely comprehensive as acts of war and terrorism are included, and is widely available for international corporations, private contractors, USAID and humanitarian organisations. Because personal accident insurance does not cover natural deaths, it can be set up extremely quickly. Your employees won't need to respond to any health questionnaires or undergo a medical examination. This valuable insurance protects your staff member and their family should an accident happen while the insured is working or visiting a high risk region. You can choose to have your personal accident insurance policy written on a group or individual basis and you can include flexible coverage periods from a day to a year. There are group discounts where several people are involved.
Personal accident insurance cover options include:
Accidental death only - death of the insured resulting from an accident.
Accidental death and dismemberment - accidental injury to the insured resulting in death, loss of sight or loss of limb(s). Permanent total disablement from an accident - disablement which prevents the insured from obtaining any gainful employment after 12 months.
Temporary disablement from an accident - accidental injury to the insured which temporarily prevents the insured from working. Medical expenses/hospitalisation resulting from an accident - accidents happen, and the last thing that you and the families of your staff need is to worry about the costs of medical care in a foreign location. This policy provides for necessary hospitalisation and recovery expenses incurred by the insured person as a result of an accident.
Evacuation and repatriation - if a member of your staff needs to be moved to a medical facility in another country (or brought home) the policy covers reasonable traveling expenses incurred by the insured.
