“Such causes of destruction of buildings as shells, missiles, mines, balloons, etc., and consequences of explosions – broken glass and other damage to real estate – have always belonged to the list of exceptions, which exempted insurers from paying compensation to victims. However, now that the country is in martial law, we have decided to give people the opportunity to protect their property from these risks as well,” says director of retail business of the company Nikolai Matika, who is quoted by the press service.
It is specified that insurance coverage applies to both movable and immovable property of the apartment (decoration, repairs, engineering and other communications, furniture, appliances and other equipment, etc.), and liability to neighbors (or other persons).
It is possible to insure apartments that are located in a residential building that has been commissioned, upon completion of repair and reconstruction works in the premises. The insurance amount can be chosen at your discretion and varies from UAH 250 thousand up to UAH 2 mln. Besides, losses, which are the result of “war risks”, will be compensated according to the terms of the contract within the insured sum without additional sublimits.
