Under Accident Shield, the sum assured will be provided to an individual (or family of an individual) if the insured sustains an injury due to an accident which shall within twelve months of its occurrence is the sole and direct cause of death.

Speaking about the partnership Mr. Ankur Bahorey, President – Bancassurance Business, HDFC ERGO General Insurance Company said,“Traditionally SME owners have given limited attention to business risk management, which often makes them vulnerable towards several factors such as theft or Act of God, unforeseen health conditions, loss of income due to reasons beyond their control etc. They also need to consider employee benefits, assets & liability management and; most important; family protection. We believe SMEs now need to draw up a prudent financial strategy to navigate through such unplanned & unfortunate incidents. With this association, we will deliver solutions as well as a sense of security to SMB owners and their respective employees.”
Mr. Manish Daswani, Head – Business Solutions, India and South Asia, Visa said, “Small businesses are amongst the most adversely impacted by the pandemic and Visa remains committed to helping them navigate and thrive in the new normal. We are thrilled to partner with HDFC ERGO to bring specialized insurance solutions to our Visa business cardholders. These bespoke plans have been built with the needs of MSMEs in mind and aim to ensure the financial wellbeing and security of our cardholders and their businesses.”
