III. Is it an obligation? What would I benefit from?

If you are the owner or co-owner of your home, you are not required to take out MULTI-RISK HOME insurance.

If you are a tenant, your rental contract usually contains a clause obliging you to take out an insurance contract covering your civil liability towards the owner (negligence on your part may even justify the termination of the rental lease. ).

However, being well insured, when a disaster occurs, avoids many inconveniences. Without insurance, all the consequences of a loss will be your responsibility.
