Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to apply for Assuris protection?

It is not necessary for policyholders to apply for protection or file a claim with Assuris. If your life insurance company fails, each policyholder will be informed by the liquidator on how their respective benefits are protected by Assuris.

What if my company merges or transfers my policy?

Policy benefits that are protected by Assuris at the time of the merger or transfer continue to be protected after the merger or transfer.

If you had a policy with each company prior to the merger, the 2 separate policies are protected by Assuris independently. If you subsequently discontinue, or make an unusual change to a policy, the independent protection on that policy ends.
