Insurance - Critical Illness Insurance

qatarstock — Sun, 10 May 2009 03:20:42 +0000

Considering health plans at a young age isn’t easy especially when you’re healthy but that does not mean you will not require protection at some point; although critical illness insurance can worry some people, this type of Critical Illness cover can provide peace of mind should your health fail at some point. This is a case of providing the essentials of living in today’s world for your loved ones in the event of your untimely death.
Unfortunately, despite longer lives, we are not generally healthier and insurance providers now routinely offer cover in their policies as there is a reasonably high probability of contracting a serious condition.

The figures speak for themselves with around twenty percent of men diagnosed with a critical condition before they reach retirement. This figure reduces, but only slightly, for women with around 15 percent having a severe health condition before retirement.

It is not certain why the take up figure for critical illness insurance is so low but it may be that people either do not see the need or do not believe the chances of this happening are that high. Those that take out critical illness cover normally do so to help pay their mortgage repayments if they are no longer able, but this type of plan can now be added directly to mortgage repayments. Whilst over the last few years the amount of insurance policies arranged online has increased dramatically, not every type of policy was available but coverage for critical illness has now been added.

Unfortunately, being a relatively new facility, there are new problems that occur as more companies start offering services over the Internet for the first time. The main reason for this is the requirement by insurance providers to have the applicant take a medical examination before they issue cover. Insurers have become more understanding when a person who has one of their critical illness insurance policies contacts them when making a claim.

Moody’s Investors Service rates Qatar sovereign bonds Aa2

qatarstock — Sun, 03 May 2009 04:52:14 +0000

These ratings are in line with the government of Qatar’s existing issuer ratings, which are also Aa2 with a stable outlook. The total size of today’s bond issuance was $3bn, which is split into two tranches: a $2bn tranche maturing in 2014 and a $1bn tranche maturing in 2019. The government has stated that the proceeds from the bonds will be used for general funding purposes, including the provision of contingency funding to entities owned or controlled by the government.

Moody’s says that the government of Qatar’s Aa2 issuer ratings are supported by the country’s very high level of prosperity; the wide, albeit narrowing external current account surplus; the government’s strong balance sheet; and the rapid expansion of gas exports which will significantly boost government revenues over the coming years.

Credit concerns for Qatar include the steep rise in government expenditure; persistent, albeit easing inflationary pressures; a volatile regional geopolitical environment; weaker institutions than higher-rated countries; a relatively undiversified economy; and, in Moody’s opinion, the government’s substantial domestic contingent liabilities.

Moody’s last rating action on Qatar was implemented on 24 July 2007, when the rating agency upgraded the government’s issuer ratings to Aa2 from Aa3 to reflect the significant strengthening of the public and external finances.

The principal methodology used in rating the government of Qatar is Moody’s Sovereign Bond Methodology, published in September 2008 and available on www.moodys.com in the Credit Policy & Methodologies directory, in the Ratings Methodologies sub-directory.

Other methodologies and factors that may have been considered in the process of rating this issuer can also be found in the Credit Policy & Methodologies directory on Moody’s website.
