Spot The Different: Loading Imposed


Q:What is loading and when will insurance companies apply loading?
A:Loading is an additional surcharge imposed on the basic premium rate. Factors that may affect the risk
where loading can be imposed are but not limited to age of vehicle, the driver's driving experience and
adverse claims experience.



Good Day.....we have been deeply involved in this business sometimes ago yet also
we wonder why premium from Etiqa is significantly lower than other convetional
insurer. No joke..we never been an agent rather than with Takaful Insurer.

So recently we come across with an astounding discovery to this question. See the
real example (both in our system)

So above covernote were cancelled because it was a bit expensive compare to below
effected covernote from Etiqa. We can concluded on something here,some insurer
imposed certain loading on driver's age and the vehicle's age. So in future,its
advisable to ask your agent/insurer whether any loading imposed in your cover note...
and you may save some money.

See it yourself

We are grateful to be with Etiqa, most other insurer are now imposed loading.

hai..sorry but can u explain more? recently i just subscribed an Etiqa Takaful for my car from an agent. i've been charged for loading surcharged 15%. The agent explained to me that is is because my age is under 23.. but when i google about it..there is no clear description about it.. TQ
