BACK in 1991, insurance companies were of the opinion
that police officers were not a good risk for motor
insurance. This made it difficult for them to find
competitive insurance in a market that was not only hostile
to police officers but was also making it difficult for the
man in the street to obtain motor insurance.
With this in mind, M G Geraghty (Insurance Brokers)
Limited introduced a Motor Insurance Scheme for police
officers which not only made it easy to arrange their
insurance - but to do so at a saving in premium.
This scheme has been running for six years, and at any
given time up to 3,800 police officers have benefited from
the discounted premiums on offer.
Times have now changed, and the motor insurance market is
much more competitive, resulting in other insurance
companies now accepting police officers at favourable
premium terms.
So the existing M G Geraghty Police Motor Scheme,
underwritten by American International Underwriters
Limited, has been upgraded to offer both competitive
premiums as well as enhanced benefits. As premium is a
major concern to most officers the discount for private
cars insured on a Comprehensive basis has been increased
to and for private cars insured on a Third Party basis.
Below are the enhancements that have been made to the
scheme:
* 48% DISCOUNT FOR PRIVATE CARS INSURED
COMPREHENSIVELY
* 40% DISCOUNT FOR PRIVATE CARS INSURED
FOR THIRD PARTY ONLY
* 100% INDEMNITY FOR COMPREHENSIVE CARS
LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD (No depreciation or
betterment in the event of a claim in the first year)
* 24-HOUR FREE TOWING SERVICE FOR
COMPREHENSIVE POLICYHOLDERS
* 24-HOUR CLAIMS PROCEDURE ENQUIRY
HOTLINE
* HK$1,000 CASH DISCOUNT COUPON FOR VECTA
CAR ANTI-THEFT CONTROL SYSTEM
* HK$1,000 CASH DISCOUNT COUPON FOR
CHALLENGER'S KING STAR AUTO MAINTENANCE
PLAN
Other benefits available to police officers include the
option to protect their No Claims Bonus, and also the
opportunity to enjoy further discounts by insuring more
than one vehicle through the scheme.
In addition to Comprehensive and Third Party Only covers,
policies can be written for Third Party Fire and Theft
cover, and if the police officer's spouse owns a vehicle
then he or she can still enjoy all of the benefits and
discounts of the scheme.
