How to settle the debt for insurance policy?

Depending on the currency in which the insurance premium is expressed on the policy, it is necessary to pay debt amount to RSD or EUR current account of OTP Osiguranje specified in the Notice. For premiums expressed in EUR, it is possible to pay in RSD counter value according to the middle exchange rate of National bank of Serbia on the day of payment. Payment can be made via e-banking, m-banking or in OTP banka Srbija's branches, according to the instruction received.

How come there is debt for insurance when installment for current month is regularly paid?

Each payment of monthly installment for insurance, closes the oldest unpaid installment. This means that, if during one month premium of insurance was not paid for whatever reason, next month the installment will close this debt. Because of this, it may happen that installments are regularly charged every month, but in fact it closes debt for previous month. If you have received a Notice on unpaid premium, please settle this debt so there will be no delays in the premium payment.

When is the payment of early reimbursement made?

OTP Osiguranje calculates the mathematical reserve at the beginning of each month for all the requests submitted during the previous month. The payment of early reimbursement (mathematical reserve) is done by the 10th of the month.

Why the early reimbursement sum is lower than paid premium?

Reimbursement of mathematical reserve does not mean the reimbursement of total premium paid, because you have been life insured for certain period of time (until the day of early repayment of the loan). This period of insurance has its price, meaning that the reimbursement sum represents difference between total premium paid and obligations of the insurer. Obligations of the insurer are payment of the guaranteed insured sum during the insured period and the costs of insurance management.

When I have right to early reimbursement?

Mathematical reserve serves to reconcile the present value of the future liability of the insurer under the life insurance contract. You exercise the right on reimbursement of mathematical reserve in case that before the expiration of contract you have paid off or refinanced the loan for which you have agreed to the life insurance policy and have paid single premium for the whole insured period.

Which documents shall be submitted in case the insured event occurs?

The documentation necessary for establishing the occurrence of the isured event and the right to payment of the insured sum depends on the type of policy and the insured case. Complete list of documentation for selected insured case can be seen here.

If the insurance policy is used as an instrument for securing a loan, to which amount must the sum be insured?

The common practice of the banks in Serbia prescribes that the sum insured must be higher than or equal to the amount of the loan amount, with the duration of the insurance longer than or equal to the duration of the loan repayment period.

What is the anticipated profit and since when is it accrued?

The profit is the average ratio of the mathematical life insurance reserve investment. The profit is anticipated since the future interest rates cannot be estimated with certainty. Therefore, we talk about the anticipated, not the guaranteed profit. The share of the profit is accrued at the end of every insured year, with the first year following the insurance commencement being the soonest. The insurance contractors are informed about the amount of the accrued profit in the written form. The profit is accrued exclusively to the insurance with the savings component.

How long can life insurance be contracted for?

Life insurance can be concluded for at least 1 year, and at most 30 years, depending on the insurance product and the applicable tariff. The upper age limit for the expiration of the life insurance is 70 or 75 years, and for the risk of permanent disability it is 65 years, depending on the tariff applicable.
