Comparing Mortgage Protection Plans
When comparing MRTA (Mortgage Reducing Term Assurance) and MLTA (Mortgage Level Term Assurance), it's essential to understand their distinct purposes and benefits.
1. MRTA is designed to cover the outstanding mortgage balance, with the coverage amount decreasing over time, aligning with the reducing loan.
It's typically a one-time premium plan and is often more affordable.
An MRTA plan's premium will usually be added into the loan amount and an interest rate will be charged on the total sum.
vs
2. MLTA, on the other hand, offers level coverage throughout the loan term and may include savings or investment components, providing additional benefits to the policyholder's beneficiaries.
Both MRTA and MLTA primarily focus on ensuring that the mortgage is paid off in the event of the borrower's death or total permanent disability, safeguarding the borrower's family from financial burden.
GELM has MLTA(s) that offers flexible, high sum assured coverage that remains consistent throughout the policy term.
This means that in the event of death or total permanent disability, your family can use the insurance payout to fully repay the home loan and retain any excess funds for other financial needs, giving them both debt security and financial continuity.
Itβs a versatile alternative for those who want mortgage protection combined with long-term wealth growth and broader life coverage.
