SUMMARY OF KEY CHANGES FOR COMMERCIAL
VEHICLES – Nova Scotia
We
previously shared with you that Royal & Sun Alliance Insurance Company
of Canada (“RSA”) was acquired by Intact Financial Corporation. As a result, your RSA
insurance policy is being transferred to Intact
Insurance Company (“Intact Insurance”) on your policy‘s renewal date.
As part of the
transition to Intact Insurance, certain coverages on your existing policy may
have been reduced/removed or enhanced/increased. The main coverage changes are
listed below; please read the content carefully.
This is
only a summary of the changes that may impact your coverage. Please refer to
your insurance policy which provides the full details of your coverage,
including a full list of conditions and exclusions. If you have questions about
your policy or these changes, please contact your broker.
Deductible changes
Your deductible may have changed. If
the deductible you had previously at RSA is not available at Intact Insurance,
it has been changed to the next lowest available. Deductibles are based upon vehicle value.
The minimum deductible requirements are outlined below:
·
If
your previous deductible was below $500 for all perils or collision, it is now
a minimum of $500 or more.
·
If
your previous deductible was below $250 for comprehensive or specified perils,
it is now a minimum of $250 or more.
