Walkaway Protection Insurance

All new finance packages arranged by Southgate have the option to include Walkaway Protection insurance, underwritten by Swann Insurance.

Walkaway Protection insurance is designed to give you peace of mind, by allowing you to return your lease vehicle when certain unforseen events occur in your life. Walkaway Protection lets you hand back your vehicle in the event that you face any of the covered circumstances outlined in the PDS, from involuntary unemployment or physical disability to the loss of your driver’s licence from a driving-restrictive medical condition.

There are 4 available cover options, each with a different level of protection. Some options include the ability to keep your car through Payment Relief coverage. See the comparison table below and read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for more information on each cover option.

Please view our Financial Services Guide (FSG) and consider the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for each level of cover. You should read the FSG because it contains important information about our authority to sell insurance products on behalf of the insurer. You should carefully read the relevant PDS because it will help you make an informed decision about whether the policy meets your needs and provides the desired cover.
