Some Important Things You Need To Know:
  • Buying a life policy is a long-term commitment and if you terminate your policy in the early years, you may get back less than the amount you have paid.

  • This plan will not have a guaranteed cash value. The value of policy may rise or fall, depending on the fund’s investment performance. Investment risks under the policy are to be borne solely by the Policyholder. Please refer to the Sales Illustration for details.

  • Maximum amount payable under a TPD claim is RM 2.0 million per life.

  • You should carefully consider the fees and charges involved. All charges are not guaranteed and may be varied from time to time.

  • The past performance of a fund may not be a reliable guide to future performance, which may be different.

  • The Company may at its absolute discretion cease to permit any issuance or redemption of units or switching to any fund.

  • You may also consider purchasing a Single Premium Investment-Linked Insurance policy or make additional Regular Top-Up payments in view that such options offer better allocation rates for investment.

  • During Premium Holiday, the Cost of Insurance, Premium for any riders attached (with express instructions to charge the Account Value) and Policy Charges (for the Basic and Riders) will continue to be deducted from the Account Value.
