William Russell and Dubai Insurance Company launch enhanced international life insurance plan

Under the new plans, residents of GCC countries will be able to insure their life for up to 20 times their salary including commissions and regular bonus payments, to a new increased maximum benefit limit of $1,500,000.

Colin Ward, Business Development Manager says:
"Living and working in the Middle East provides individuals with tremendously rewarding career and international lifestyle opportunities, but they also need to make sure that they have the right insurance to financially protect their income and the security of their families in the event of illness, injury or even death.

"Most life insurance and income protection plans are simply not designed for global living. This is why we have designed our plans to provide a level of flexibility and international cover individuals need to protect their standard of living and provide for those they may leave behind.

"By increasing our maximum life benefit to $1,500,000 we can offer high-earners the reassurance that they can select a sum insured that better represents their financial status and provides an improved financial safety-net for their families.

William Russell has frozen premiums for five years, but it has become necessary to increase Global Life and Global Income Protection plan premiums by fifteen per cent starting 1st May 2009.

William Russell is one of only a few insurance providers to offer specialist international life and income protection insurance plans.
