Predica, subsidiary of Crédit Agricole Assurances, has expanded its range of accidental death insurance products. It now proposes a streamlined, open-ended offering with benefits and services to protect the policyholder’s relatives in the event of death or permanent total disability.
Distributed through the Crédit Agricole Regional Banks1 network , the new offering comprises three policies tailored to the differing needs of Predica’s customers:
