agree  B D Finch: While this is quite possible, e.g. insurance for retirement and sickness benefits in an employment contract, it is impossible to know without more context. Your examples both cite "insurance and benefits", not "... for benefits".

Explanation:
Context is insufficient thus far.

This may be insurance guaranteeing a certain level of income in a business context. This may be using 'bénéfices' in the sense of advanatges (of whatever sort). Again, no context.

It would be surprising if the term 'benefit' coudl be read into this for a UK target as the potential reading there would be referring to state benefits, social security. Again, no context, although seems unlikely.

Please could we have some context?
