Bus/Financial - Insurance / type of group insurance
Swedish term or phrase: trygghetskapitalförsäkring
Trygghetskapitalförsäkring
No context other than it's in a large table of contents and comes under group insurance, and not sure what to call it in English - I've seen a reference to security capital insurance, so would this make sense at all?
TIA

incapacity benefit insurance; (private) 'living assurance'
Explanation:
Kapital is benefit and NOT capital in this ins. context.

It's not only in New Zealand that private disability etc. plans are called living *assurance*. In the UK, they are also called 'dreaded diseases' insurance.
