Smart Secure

Smart Secure is a 4-year non-participating, single premium endowment insurance plan.

Cash benefits are payable each year, starting from the end of the first policy year till the end of the third policy year. If there is no claim from the policy, it will pay a maturity benefit at the end of the policy term. This plan also provides protection against death and total and permanent disability (TPD before the age of 70) during the term of the policy.

Yes, there is guaranteed acceptance for this plan regardless of the insured’s health condition. However, financial underwriting is applicable.

Upon death of the insured during the term of the policy, we will pay 105% of the sum assured, less all cash benefits paid.

Any policy loan and interest will be deducted from the benefit amount payable.

The policy terminates thereafter.

We will not pay the death benefit if the insured commits suicide within one year from the date:

whichever is latest. The policy will cease with immediate effect and we will refund the total premiums paid without interest.

If the insured survives at the end of one year from the policy entry date, we will begin to pay out a cash benefit.

Each cash benefit is 25% of the sum assured and we pay it every year till the end of the third policy year as long as the insured is still alive and this policy has not ended. We will pay the first cash benefit one year from the policy entry date.

You can choose to use the cash benefit to fund premiums of a specified savings plan or receive it as a payout.

• the policy entry date for this policy and the specified savings plan is the same; and
