INCOME INSURANCE FOR PROFESSIONALS
The biggest asset of the professional is the ability to work
The risk for a professional to lose his ability to perform his specific job is visible, but with the appropriate precautionary steps it can be addressed.
PROFESCO Professional Ability Insurance provides the solution, as it can secure this great asset of a professional that is, his ability to work in the job he already had before any unfortunate event.
So far, most of the contracts found in the insurance market oblige the insured to prove permanent and / or total incapacity to exercise ANY WORK in order to be compensated.
For example, if a dentist loses his hand and can no longer work as a dentist, he may not be reimbursed by his insurance company, arguing that he can practice any other profession that does not require the use of both hands.
What is the target audience of PROFESCO (Professional Cover)?
1. Doctors (Surgeons, Dentists, Pediatricians, Orthopedists)
2. Freelancers (Lawyers, Accountants, Architects, Engineers, Journalists, Advertisers, Hairdressers, Graphic Designers)
3. Artists (Painters, Musicians, Composers, Singers, Actors, Spectacle Artists)
4. Athletes (Football Players, Basketball Players, Tennis Players)
5. Business Executives CEOs, Financial Managers, Personnel Managers
The difference of PROFESCO (PROFESSIONAL COVER)
The Solution is brought by Profesco Insurance. Its big difference is that it covers the insured in case of inability to exercise the profession he had declared before being insured.
That is, the contract defines as Permanent Total Disability the accident and / or illness that will make the insured incapable of exercising in the future the specific profession or occupation that he had declared at the beginning of his Insurance Contract.
In this way, PROFESCO provides a standard of living for professionals when an unpredicted event divests them of their income.
Who is PROFESCO for?
This contract is addressed mainly to professionals who may lose most of their annual income as a result of an accident or illness, which will make them unable to exercise permanently or temporarily the specific profession they practiced before the event (i.e. the singer will no longer be able to sing, the surgeon will not be able to operate, the lawyer will no longer be able to plead a case or even attend court, etc.).
