Are you a Premier customer?
Our dedicated Premier Managers can also discuss your protection only needs with you.
At HSBC, we offer you the financial support you need if you're unable to work due to an accident or injury. Our Income Cover pays a monthly tax-free benefit to help replace your loss of earnings.
In addition to a monthly benefit, the policy can provide specialist rehabilitation services, tailored to you, which can help you get back on your feet and back in to work.
Our rehabilitation providers specialise in helping customers affected by our most common causes of claim; psychological issues such as stress, anxiety and depression, musculoskeletal problems, such as back pain and cancer. This means you can get practical help and the treatment you need without delay.
Income Cover can be taken over a set term or until you are 59.
If you're not sure which products are right for you, you can use our financial planning tools to help you decide. Alternatively you can contact your local branch and a member of our team will be happy to discuss the options available with you.
