You may have heard the term "accommodation loan" used by your insurance company or bank. Accommodation loans are short-term loans that help you pay for your insurance premiums. The money you borrow will be applied to your current policy and will only be paid back once you've paid off the full amount of your policy or after some period of time (like two years). If you have a loan with an accommodation period, this means that your loan will be paid off at the end of the term before it is due back to the bank. In other words, if you borrow $1,000 and pay it back in two years, then you will only have to pay back $500 at the end of that time period.


There is a need for an accommodation loan in insurance because it helps the insurance company to cover the cost of insurance policies that are not affordable to the customers. When the customer requires an accommodation, they cannot afford the premium of their insurance policy. The customer may need to apply for an accommodation loan so that they can pay the premiums of their current policy. This will help them to continue with their coverage and avoid being dropped by the insurance company.
