Premium Financing FAQs
Who can my insured call with questions on their existing finance contract?
Please contact (800) 844-2678 and reference your Cedar Finance Company agreement including insured’s name and policy number.
How do I get a Cedar Finance quote?
You can quote with Cedar Finance online to obtain a financing quote, or an underwriter can provide a Cedar Finance quote for you.
Will financed policies be included in my statement from JM Wilson?
Policies financed through Cedar Finance Company will appear in full on your agency’s monthly statement from JM Wilson as the amount of the down payment on the financing agreement, less commission.
How are cancellation return premiums handled?
Cancellation return premiums will be allocated to the outstanding loan balance; any additional premium will be returned to the insured once the loan has been paid.
How are additional premium endorsements handled?
If an additional premium endorsement is made on a financed policy, the increased amount is not automatically added to the initial financing agreement. Please contact us if you would like to add an endorsement to an existing loan.
Does a policy have to be written by JM Wilson in order to be financed?
No. Premium financing is available for JM Wilson policies as well as policies that are written outside of JM Wilson.
