How Scotia Business Loan Protection Insurance can help improve your business’ financial security

If your claim is approved, this optional insurance reduces the financial burden of your small business loan for your company or family. 

It makes payments either toward your scheduled loan repayments or to pay off all or part of your loan balance. This helps your business: 

Free up cashflow for necessary expenses like salaries, inventory and leases to keep your business operating.

Avoid using profits, capital or other credits to make your loan payments.

Make your small business loan payments on time to maintain your credit score.

Minimize the impact of an absent key employee by leaving you with more funds to hire or train a replacement.

Protect the business you have worked so hard to build from financial hardship

No medical questions asked for credit limits $50,000 or less.
