Their Best Life package provides financial protection for your loved ones in the event of your death or terminal illness. It ensures that your family or business can continue to thrive even when you're no longer there.

There are two main types of life insurance:

  • Lump sum: This type of insurance pays a one-time lump sum amount that can be used for various purposes. It can help settle debts, cover funeral expenses, create an investment fund, restructure business ownership, or provide an inheritance.
  • Monthly payment: This option is designed to minimise the impact on your family's lifestyle after your death. It provides a regular monthly payment that can help them maintain their financial stability.

When it comes to premium options, you have flexibility in choosing the most suitable one for your needs:

  • Yearly stepped: The premiums for this option are based on your current age and sum insured. They start relatively low but increase each year as you get older.
  • Level term: With this option, the premiums are fixed for the life of the policy, providing stability and potential long-term savings compared to yearly stepped premiums.

Trauma and critical illness cover

It offers financial flexibility during a serious illness or injury. If you’re diagnosed with a covered condition such as cancer, heart attack, or stroke, you receive a lump sum payment.

This payment can be used to reduce debt, cover specialised equipment, make home modifications, provide additional care, or create an investment fund. The flexibility to decide how to use the funds gives you peace of mind.

Similar to the Best Life option, you have the choice between yearly stepped and level-term premiums for trauma and critical illness cover. Yearly stepped premiums start out relatively low and increase each year with age, while level-term premiums remain fixed for the life of the policy.

Understand total and permanent disability (TPD)

TPD provides a lump sum payment if you become totally and permanently disabled. The inability to perform daily activities or work on your own or any occupation defines TPD.

Choose the TPD option

  1. Own occupation – If you can't work in your specific occupation.
  2. Any occupation – If you can't work on your own or any other occupation you're reasonably suited for.

Additional benefits you can add to your policy

  • Worldwide cover
  • Recurrent disability benefit
  • Vocational training benefit
  • Home modification of equipment support
  • Bed confinement
