Business Clients – Premium Funding Option
Cash flow management is an important requirement for any successful commercial business and a lump sum insurance payment could be disruptive to annual business cash flows.
Premium Funding can help to avoid large insurance bills that need to be paid in one lump sum by offering a flexible and convenient way to spread insurance costs into smaller monthly payments.
The ‘cash flow’ advantages of funding your Insurance Premiums are that you obtain an additional Line of Credit which preserves working capital for better investment in your business.
Premium Funding is a flexible insurance payment option that can be structured to meet the financial needs of your business.
Enjoy the following benefits of Premium Funding:
- Retain working capital
- Fixed interest rate – tax deductible
- No loan security cost – the policy itself is the security
- Flexible repayment options
- Various repayment methods
How does it work?
On your behalf, FIA arrange for payment of your insurance premiums to us by the required date through one of a range of Premium Funders.
You repay to the Premium Funder the total premiums cost plus their finance charge in monthly instalments by EFT through the Direct Debits Payment System.
This funding option is available for commercial insurance including industrial special risk, public liability, workers’ compensation, motor vehicle, professional indemnity and most others.
Your Account Manager can arrange for a Premium Funding quotation for your business account.
