What else do I need to know?
What else do I need to know?

Yes.

You won't necessarily require a medical examination to take out a Chubb Life Insurance Policy. Medical examinations are only required for two reasons. First, if you have requested a large amount of cover. Second, if you have a medical condition that requires a doctor's input to make a fair assessment.

In some cases where you report a medical condition, we'll ask for your consent to discuss your information with your doctor, rather than ask you to visit your doctor for an examination.

Yes. You can apply to reduce or increase your requested insurance cover at any time during the assessment process. If you wish to increase cover, be aware that the process could take longer as additional information may be required.

It’s very common for insurers to increase your Life Insurance premiums as you age. At Chubb Life, depending on the premium structure you have chosen for your covers, your premiums will likely be adjusted on each policy anniversary date. These changes will reflect your current age and cover amounts. You'll always be advised in writing prior to any changes being made to your premium.

You must have a Chubb Life insurance policy that's currently in-force and has been for at least 90 days. Your premuim payments must be up to date (ie your policy is not in arrears).

Your insurance is underwritten by Chubb Life Insurance New Zealand Limited (Chubb Life). Chubb Life has an A (Excellent) financial strength rating given by A.M. Best Company Inc. A summary of the rating scale is: A++, A+ Superior | A, A- Excellent | B++, B+ Good | B, B- Fair | C++, C+ Marginal | C, C- Weak | D Poor | E Under Regulatory Supervision | F In Liquidation | S Suspended.
