| 20110119093 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MANAGING AN INSURANCE SCHEME - A method of managing an insurance policy includes defining a plurality of mechanisms to protect an insured person from adverse financial outcomes. A selection of at least one of the plurality of mechanism is received from the insured person and stored the selection in a memory. On the occurrence of an insured event, the stored selection is retrieved and a basic insurance amount to be paid to the insured person based on an insurance policy of the insured person is calculated. The method then includes determining based on the stored selection of mechanisms if the insured person has suffered any adverse financial outcomes since the inception of the policy and if so then calculating a further financial protector amount to be paid to the insured person based on the stored selection of mechanisms. Finally, the basic insurance amount and further financial protector amount are paid to the insured person or their nominated beneficiary. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20110112872 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MANAGING AN INSURANCE SCHEME - A method of managing an insurance policy includes storing in a memory a policy inception interest rate level which is an interest rate level payable on debt of the insured person.
