Medical Aid Solutions
AFGRI Insurance Brokers now handles the Discovery and ThebeMed Medical schemes for and on behalf of the AFGRI Group. This approach has opened the door to all clients in providing expert Medical Aid advice with a wide selection of alternative service providers.
Life and Credit Life Insurance
Credit Life Insurance is a decreasing term policy taken out by the consumer to cover the risks of a specific debt. The benefit reduces on a yearly basis as your debt reduces and is valid for the whole loan contract period. The benefit of this type of cover is that unlike most life policies, you are not required to provide evidence of good health.
However the application for this type of cover requires that you disclose any medical conditions that you are suffering from or that you may have suffered from previously.
This cover protects your dependents from having to pay for your debt. Credit Life Insurance not only pays in the event of your death, but may cover you in the event of you becoming disabled (occupation based) leaving you medically unfit for work, in order for you to earn an income and service the debt.
AFGRI Insurance Brokers are also recognized by all major Life Insurance Companies. We can provide you with the best-suited life cover and know that your loved ones are taken care of when you are not there to lend financial assistance.
Personal Financial Planning
Your retirement plan and ongoing financial plans are vital. We assist you with advice on financial protection, concepts and goals. We then match product and investment structures to suit your individual needs.
Risk Planning
Risk Planning is essential for all, especially those with dependents and debt obligations. We can assist in analyzing your current risk position and creating tailored Life Insurance, disability insurance and dread disease insurance options that mitigate these risks and provide financial peace of mind.
Estate Planning
This aspect is often neglected and through our network of consultants we can ensure that you have a regularly reviewed and updated estate plan.

Retirement can be costly and most often your current retirement policy will not be sufficient, this can be supplemented via wealth creation through structured cost-effective investments.

As a farmer you’re well aware: If you live on a farm in a rural area, you are particularly vulnerable to robberies and attacks – the remoteness of farms and the long response time provide attackers with the opportunity to remain longer, and victims can be subjected to a higher degree of violence than in urban areas where security forces are quicker to the rescue.
The ResQ app provides a facility where the client can add 3 emergency contact numbers. These numbers will be activated and notified when the panic button is activated.
