Mortgage Disability Protection provides the payment of a non-integrated monthly benefit to the insured in case of disability. MDP covers mortgage, motorized vehicles and boat loans.

MDP offers the possibility to issue a pension amount according to the clients needs, and includes property and school taxes. MDP can be added to most PACE products and a large number of Traditional insurance products.

Benefit payments begin three months after onset of disability and are retroactive to the first month. At time of claim, the monthly benefit paid to the disabled insured is not coordinated with any other income. Depending on the option selected, the term can be a maximum of two years or until age 65. However, no benefits will be paid beyond the end of the amortization period.

  • A benefit that is independent to the decreasing life insurance
  • Not limited to 50% or 100% of the payment (adjusts to budget restrictions)
