Providing protection to family members is no more a major expense or a big ticket item as National Bonds introduces innovative family financial protection plans that offer up to one million-dirham cover with premiums starting from as low as 50 fils a day. In line with its mission of empowering customers to take control of their financial futures, the leading Shariah-compliant saving scheme in the UAE has announced the launch of a diverse range of Islamic Insurance Plans starting from 50 fils a day. The plans, which are designed to provide lifestyle protection, are structured to safeguard customers and their loved ones against accidents, critical illness, disabilities and death. The comprehensive insurance plans provide support for all members of the family across a wide range of difficult situations, ensuring that their families will be able to cope with any financial hardship if the customers are no longer there to take care of them. The Shariah-compliant ‘Family Financial Protection Plans’, are underwritten by Abu Dhabi National Takaful Company, one of the region’s leading Islamic insurance (Takaful) companies, and distributed without the provision of any medical examinations thus offering customers the convenience of simple and quick enrollment. “National Bonds has always prioritised customers’ needs and focused on the importance of their financial security in case of unexpected events.
