Protection and Compensation Fund

The aim of the Protection and Compensation Fund is two-fold: (i) to pay for any claims against an insurer which have remained unpaid because the insurer became insolvent. These claims must be in respect of protected risks situated in Malta or protected commitments where Malta is the country of commitment, and (ii) to compensate victims of road traffic accidents in certain specified circumstances.
