Our Personal Protector policy offers comprehensive cover looking after the insurance needs of an individual and all their personal belongings including limited business cover.
The policy includes covers for House Owners, Household Contents, All Risks, Personal Accident, Motor, Personal Liability, Personal Computers and Pleasure Craft.
Continuous and consistent evaluation of our product against our clients’ needs has led to an improved Personal Protector Policy

Subject always to the current policy terms and conditions, herewith some of the unique new features:
Most commercial policies are based on the now outlawed Multimark III – the market policy which was withdrawn by the South African Insurance Association (SAIA) in 2007. However, Frontline’s highly skilled and knowledgeable staff can assist intermediaries in tailoring products to specifically fit customer profiles and address their customers’ non-life insurance needs. Commercial insurance is a specialised field and Frontline’s people are professionals who are ready to make a difference to our intermediaries’ business and their clients’ lives. Here are our commercial product offerings:
