Why You Need to Act Now

  • Life Expectancy is Rising: Singaporeans are living longer, but extended lifespans mean more years of health-related expenses. Have you factored this into your current coverage? Not doing so could erode years of savings and derail even the most carefully laid retirement plans.

  • Critical Illnesses are Expensive: Did you know that on average, patients struck with a critical illness take around 3 to 5 years to recover and return to being economically productive? This leaves many families under-prepared for long recovery periods and lead to degradation in standard of living.

  • Peace of Mind for You and Your Loved Ones: Ensuring you are fully protected with life and critical illness insurance isn’t just about safeguarding yourself—it’s about giving your family financial security if the unexpected happens.

What Are the Essential Insurance Coverage Recommended for Working Adults?


According to the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Basic Financial Planning Guide2, here are the basic rules of thumb for protection that you can consider.

Whole/
Term Life Insurance

  • Provides financial support to your loved ones in case of premature death, helping them cover ongoing lifestyle expenses.
  • The coverage amount recommended is at least 9 times your annual income.

Critical Illness Insurance

  • Covers major medical costs and offers a lump sum payout to ease the financial burden of long-term recovery.
  • The coverage amount recommended is at least 4 times your annual income.


For example, someone with the median monthly income of $5,197 should be covered for death & total permanent disability to the tune of at least $561,276. This person should also be insured against critical illness for at least $249,456.

About Chiang Wen Kai 詹渂凯 (Kelvin)

Having personally witness a close relative fall into a dire state in just a matter of weeks, the amount of shock and grief is an emotionally overwhelming and distressing situation. It's a time marked by intense and complex feelings. The shock can leave one feeling numb, disoriented, and unable to fully comprehend the gravity of the situation. Grief, on the other hand, is a deep and profound sorrow that comes with a sense of loss, helplessness, and sadness.

The added financial strain, stemming from inadequate financial coverage, can compound these emotions. It may create a sense of frustration, anxiety, and guilt, as you're not only dealing with the emotional burden but also the practical challenges of managing medical expenses and other financial responsibilities. This can lead to a feeling of helplessness and uncertainty about the future, as one grapple with how to provide the best care and life-long support for the relative, as well as for the spouse, young kids, and aging parents.
