In the event that you choose not to seek advice from a Financial Planner, you should consider whether the product in question is suitable for you. Please also refer to the general provisions for the exact terms and conditions, specific details and exclusions of this product. As buying a life insurance policy is a long-term commitment, an early termination of the policy usually involves high costs and the surrender value, if any, that is payable to you may be zero or less than the total premiums paid. Buying health insurance products that are not suitable for you may impact your ability to finance your future healthcare needs. It is detrimental to replace an existing life insurance policy with a new one as the new policy may cost more or have fewer benefits at the same cost.

    This policy is protected under the Policy Owners’ Protection Scheme which is administered by the Singapore Deposit Insurance Corporation (SDIC). Coverage for your policy is automatic and no further action is required from you.
