Disability insurance

Disability pension:

• Monthly payments in case of disability. Payments start after 12 months of continuous sick leave of at least 50%, unless otherwise agreed. The chosen annual sum insured is paid out in monthly instalments as long as you are at least 50% incapacitated for work, up to the selected retirement age (67 years at the latest).

Single payment permanent disability benefit:

• One-off payment of selected sum insured in case of incapacity for work. If the insured person has been at least 50% continuously incapacitated for work during the period and the disability is permanent, the amount is paid in full after two years.

Disability caused by an illness/disorder that was discovered or manifested symptoms or signs within three months of the policyholder's acceptance of the agreement.

• That the incapacity for work is due to circumstances that the company made reservations against when evaluating the health information. Any reservation will appear from the insurance certificate.
• Insurance events that the insured person caused or exacerbated through gross negligence or intent.

The insurance is valid worldwide.

When purchasing insurance, you must provide accurate and complete answers to the company's questions. The insurance certificate specifies which information is used as a basis. If anything is incorrect, you must inform us immediately.

In the event of damage or injury you must contact us as soon as possible.

If you do not comply with your obligations, the settlement payment may be reduced, fully or partly.

The cost of disability insurance varies from person to person and is calculated based on factors such as age, occupation and the income gap you will face if you become incapacitated for work.

Of annually paid disability pension 20% of the amount paid will be taxable income.

Single payment permanent disability benefit is paid as a tax-free lump sum.

You do not have to be 100% incapacitated for work to use your disability insurance.

To be eligible for a disability pension, you must be at least 50% temporarily or permanently incapacitated for work.

To receive a single payment permanent disability benefit disbursement, you must be at least 50% permanently incapacitated for work.

There is no grading of disbursement at DNB. This means you will receive 100% disbursements if you are at least 50% incapacitated for work.

Unless otherwise agreed, disability pension disbursements begin after 12 months of continuous sick leave of at least 50%. The chosen annual sum insured is divided into monthly disbursements and lasts as long as you are at least 50% incapacitated for work or until the selected termination age.

Disbursement from a single payment permanent disability benefit is made in full as a one-off amount after two years, as long as you have been at least 50% incapacitated for work for at least 2 years and the degree of disability is considered permanent.

You can combine your disability pension and single payment permanent disability benefit to receive both monthly disbursements and a lump sum payment.
