Policy Loans

Borrow on the surrender value of your life policy

If you have a life assurance policy with Scottish Widows — and you’ve been paying premiums into it for a while, your policy should now have a surrender value. With a Policy Loan you can borrow against the surrender value.

  • You could borrow from £1,000 up to 80% of the surrender value of your Scottish Widows Life Assurance policy
  • Your policy will be assigned as security for the loan to Scottish Widows Bank
  • Flexibility to borrow a lump sum now and further sums (minimum of £100), as and when you need it
  • Variable interest rate, tracking at 3% over the Bank of England Base Rate.
  • Scottish Widows Bank subscribes to the Lending Code, details of which are available at www.lendingstandardsboard.org.uk .This link will open in a new window The Lending GuideThis link will open in a new window and accompanying Consumer Guide This link will open in a new window are also available for download.
