Malayan Insurance Co. Inc. (Malayan) has launched its Family Relief product on the Lazada LazMall platform, to help more Filipinos gain a foothold toward financial security. Family Relief is a specialized non-life insurance policy that shields families from unexpected financial burdens brought about by accidents and misfortunes. It is the first product offered by the country’s leading non-life insurer on the online shopping platform. 

“By increasing our presence in digital channels and online marketplaces like Lazada, we are enabling Filipinos to have the fortitude and peace of mind to help them and withstand financial shocks, disasters, and other crises that could occur in their household,” said Paolo Abaya, president and CEO of Malayan Insurance.

For as low as P500, the Family Relief Basic package helps households cope with unbudgeted financial needs caused by the untimely demise of a loved one. This non-transferable, one-year policy is renewable annually. It provides beneficiaries with a lump sum death benefit of P1.05 million if the policyholder passes away due to an unforeseen accident.
