Capricorn Mutual updates to protect your business

People in workshop

Capricorn Mutual was established to provide Capricorn Society Members with market-leading protections tailored to the Motor Trades industry.

To ensure we continue to deliver on this purpose, we have undertaken a detailed review of the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) wording. The refreshed PDS includes new optional benefits, additional benefits and some other important changes.

Benefit limits have increased on a number of sections including:

  • Hire car costs following theft
  • Motorcycle helmets and riding apparel
  • Recovery costs following theft
  • Towing costs
  • Unlimited windscreen claims
  • Signwriting protection

New optional benefits include:

  • Choice of repairer
  • Fleet vehicles protection for members who have 15 or more vehicles
  • Employee theft protection
  • Hire car after incident
  • Landlord protection
