Involuntary Unemployment Insurance

Insurance

Involuntary Unemployment Insurance is a voluntary insurance product that provides eligible financial benefits when a policyholder loses employment through no fault of their own. Benefits may help cover loan or mortgage payments for a specified period, subject to the policy's terms, conditions, waiting periods, limitations, and exclusions.

Involuntary Unemployment Insurance helps borrowers maintain eligible loan payments after a covered job loss, reducing financial stress during unemployment.

Why it matters for financial institutions

Involuntary Unemployment Insurance helps borrowers stay current on loan obligations during periods of unexpected unemployment, reducing the likelihood of delinquency and default. For financial institutions, it supports stronger portfolio performance, enhances borrower confidence, and creates additional value through voluntary protection product offerings.
