SIMPLIFIED RIDER REGARDING NON-ESSENTIAL TRAVEL DURING COVID-19

As the COVID situation changes, we have to continually re‑examine how we're handling things. One of the changes we've made is to simplify the wording of the rider regarding non-essential travel when an insured mentions that they plan on travelling.

I will comply with the Canadian government guidelines for non‑essential travel during the COVID‑19 pandemic.

Since no changes have been made to the interpretation of the rider, we won't be sending an update.

Insureds must follow the latest recommendations by the Government of Canada, which are available on the Canada Border Services Agency website. They can use the following information to determine whether their trip is essential or not.

As soon as the government advisories against non‑essential travel related to COVID‑19 are lifted, the rider will automatically be null and void for the remainder of the contract.

COMPLIANCE MANUAL – LIFE AND HEALTH INSURANCE | UPDATED VERSION

Regulators who oversee financial service sectors such as securities and insurance are constantly amending regulations. To keep up with these changes, we’ve updated our Compliance Manual – Life and Health Insurance.

This manual has valuable information on life and health insurance. It covers topics like:

• Code of Professional Conduct of Desjardins Insurance
• Ethics and Business Conduct
• Life and Health Insurance
• Segregated Funds and Annuity Products
• Policy on the Non‑Resident Client
• Anti‑Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing
• Complaint Management
