Small-to-medium-sized expatriate businesses based in the Gulf and their employees will have an increased range of options for buying cover following the launch of international health insurance, life and income protection plans from William Russell and Dubai Insurance Company.
The companies have launched GlobalHealth, GlobalLife and GlobalIncome Protection in response to increased international migration and secondment.
Employees working abroad will be covered under policies that can be carried over if policyholders relocate to a different country.
James Cooper, sales director at William Russell, said the plans offered choice, flexibility and freedom of choice when it came to medical care. He said: "Choosing to live and work in the Gulf provides expatriates with rewarding career and lifestyle opportunities but they do need to make sure they have the right insurance to financially protect their income and the security of the families in the event of illness, injury or even death."
Dubai Insurance Company and William Russell said the corporate plan members will have access to a growing network of clinics, hospitals and pharmacies across the Middle East through Neuron, a specialist claims administrator.
The products will be underwritten by Dubai Insurance Company, which has nearly four decades worth of insurance experience, and administered by William Russell, an international expatriate insurance specialist.
