Banks makes money in a lot of ways. They are not insurance companies, so when they are selling a mortgage they also use this opportunity to provide other services, including home insurance and mortgage protection insurance.
Unlike Beat The Bank who act as an intermediary with relationships with five insurers, banks use just one life insurance company when it comes to Mortgage Protection.
The major mortgage lenders in Ireland are as follows:
Bank of Ireland
AIB
Ulster Bank
KBC
Permanent TSB
With the exception of Bank of Ireland, all the other banks are tied to Irish Life for Mortgage Protection.
Bank of Ireland uses its subsidiary New Ireland (sometimes called Bank of Ireland Life) for Mortgage Protection.
