Home Insurance
About Your Plan
Butterfield is a leading financial institution in the Cayman Islands. We offer a comprehensive range of private and commercial banking services to our customers. We have a substantial mortgage portfolio on homes and commercial premises in the Cayman Islands, as well as providing loans for vehicles and personal items.
In order to further improve the service and coverage to our customers, we now offer a new homeowner insurance policy. Delivered through Island Heritage, this policy provides clients with greater protection at a more competitive price.
Island Heritage is a specialist property insurance company domiciled in Grand Cayman and currently writes business in various Caribbean Islands with a particular interest in providing insurance cover to homeowners.
Island Heritage has a strong capital base and substantial reinsurance protection. In addition to a high level of security, clients are provided with service that is second to none. They are rated by A. M. Best Co., and details are available from the company website and brochure.
Island Heritage has produced an insurance package designed to provide comprehensive protection for homeowners. The policy has been written and the covers have been selected with the aim of providing, (in a single document), the full range of insurances required by the homeowner.
The policy wording has been simplified and structured in a way that promotes greater understanding of the covers provided. These are presented in separate sections, which detail the INSURANCE COVER and the EXCLUSIONS using a “split-page” format.
Understanding Your Policy
The following is a summary of the cover offered by the policy:
Section 1 The Buildings of your homeSection 2 Your Contents - you have the option to include these, or notSection 3 Your Liability - to domestic employees (if any) - as owner and/or occupier of your home - in a personal capacitySection 4 Various accidental loss/damage covers - Accidental breakage of fixed glass and sanitary ware - Accidental damage to underground cables and pipes - Replacement of door locks - Fatal accident benefit - Loss of personal money - Credit card abuse - Spoilage of food - Accidental breakage of mirrors and glass. Also, some
items can be provided with wider cover- but only if you have insured your Contents under Section 2 Valuables, personal effects and electronic equipment can be covered for accidental loss or damage. A detailed listing of all items is required and an additional premium must be paid.
Section 5 Personal Accident Cover - Provides compensation in the event that you suffer bodily
injury caused by an accident which results in your permanent total disablement.
- Should such an event occur the Policy will pay the outstanding mortgage balance, your building sum insured, or US$250,000, whichever is less.
Policy Schedule The Schedule of the policy is an extremely important document as it is here that the specifics of your risk are documented (insured name, address of property insured, period of insurance, sections covered, sums insured, etc.)
It is important to appreciate that the figure entered as the Sum Insured/Limit of Liability for each section is the maximum that can be paid in the event of a loss. Where N/C appears on the Policy Schedule, there is no cover provided.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR POLICY SCHEDULE CAREFULLY AND ENSURE THAT ALL DETAILS ARE CORRECTLY STATED.
176610-Broc-HomeInsurance.indd 2-3 2/13/17 2:16:14 PM
Perils Covered
Both Buildings and Contents are covered for the same Perils, which are listed below and are fully defined in the policy.
• Fire, lightning, explosion, smoke, thunderbolt and subterranean fire• Riot, civil commotion, strikes, labour and political disturbances• Malicious acts and vandalism• Earthquake and volcanic eruption (including flood or overflow of the sea caused by these perils)• Hurricane, cyclone, tornado or windstorm (including flood or overflow of the sea caused by these perils)• Flood • Impact by aircraft, aerial devices, vehicles or animals • Escape of water or oil from any fixed water or heating installation
or domestic appliance• Theft or attempted theft• Falling trees or branches• Subsidence or heave of the site on which the buildings stand
and/or landslip
ALTHOUGH THE COVER IS EXTENSIVE, VARIOUS TYPES OF LOSS ARE NOT COVERED AND THE POLICY DOCUMENT SHOULD BE EXAMINED CAREFULLY.
Deductibles These are defined in the policy as follows:
“The amount of each loss for which you are responsible”
A deductible applies to each peril and full details are found on the bottom section of the Policy Schedule. Simply put, this is an amount of each claim, which is not paid by the company. These amounts are small in respect of most losses, but you should be aware of the following “higher” deductible:
Perils DeductibleEarthquake, volcanic eruption, hurricane, 3% of the Sumcyclone, tornado, windstorm Insured for Buildings and flood. and/or Contents.
Sums Insured
Buildings The Policy defines Buildings as your home (including outbuildings), its landlord’s fixtures and fittings, swimming pools, patios, terraces, footpaths, satellite dishes, external antennae, hard courts, walls, gates and fences. If you wish, this definition may be extended to include seawalls, docks, piers and jetties.
Your Sum Insured should represent the full rebuilding cost of those items to be covered by your policy. In arriving at this figure, please be sure to use up to date construction costs and to include an amount for the cost of removing debris after a loss and for architects’, surveyors’ and legal fees.
Contents These are defined as household goods and personal effects (including Valuables), fixtures, fittings, and interior decorations belonging to you (or for which you are responsible), or belonging to your family or domestic employees permanently residing with you, all situated within your home and used solely for domestic purposes.
Certain items are not covered, such as cash, banknotes, stamps, animals, property used in connection with any business or profession, etc.
Your Sum Insured for your Contents should be equivalent to the replacement cost of all items within your home. The best way to arrive at this figure is to make an inventory of every item in each room and then apply its value at today’s prices.
Sums Insured Continued
176610-Broc-HomeInsurance.indd 4-5 2/13/17 2:16:14 PM
What happens if your sum insured is too low?
We do agree that it is not an easy matter to arrive at an accurate Sum Insured, even when some expert assistance has been provided. Because of this, there has been an element of flexibility included in the policy, which eliminates any penalty so long as your sum(s) insured are within 85% of the correct figure(s).
However, if your Sum(s) Insured are below this level, then should you have a loss, the amount claimed will be reduced in proportion to the degree of under-insurance.
The following example will help demonstrate this situation.
Example: Rebuilding Cost of the Home $250,000.00
Policy Sum Insured $150,000.00
Amount Claimed $50,000.00
Amount Paid $30,000.00
Here the Policy Sum Insured is only 60% of the rebuilding cost. Since this is outside the 85% concession allowed by the policy, the Amount Claimed is reduced by the degree of under-insurance. The degree of under-insurance is 40%, so the Amount Claimed ($50,000) is reduced by 40% to $30,000.00. You, the policyholder, are considered as your own insurer for the shortfall and so must finance this amount from your own resources.
BE SURE TO AVOID UNDER-INSURANCE – REGULARLY CHECK YOUR SUM(S) INSURED.
Liability Cover
Section 3 of the policy provides compensation in respect of certain legal liabilities to which the homeowner can be exposed.
A. Liability to domestic employees – where you have such employees then the policy automatically provides cover up to a limit of $250,000.
B. Liability as owner and/or occupier of the Building(s) and in a personal capacity – this provides cover up to a limit of $500,000 in respect of the death or injury of any third party or damage to the property of any third party, which occurs:
(i) In or about the Buildings and attaching to you as owner and/or occupier of the Buildings
(ii) Within the Geographical Area (stated in your Policy Schedule) and attaching to you in a personal capacity.
In The Event Of A Loss
Occasionally losses do happen, so it is important to be familiar with the procedure in order that your claim can be efficiently processed.
1. Immediately inform the police if property is lost, stolen or maliciously damaged.
2. Notify us as soon as possible and report in writing within 30 days of the date of loss.
3. Take all reasonable steps to recover any lost or stolen property.
4. Forward to us any letter or legal document related to the claim.
5. Allow us to discuss liability and negotiate settlement with any third party.
