What is Cash Value?
Cash value simply means a sum of cash refund payable upon surrendering a life policy.
What is APL?
APL stands for "Automatic Premium Loan". APL is typically applicable by default after your policy acquired a surrender value. It is specified in the policy contract that any amount of unpaid premium will automatically be paid through a premium loan at the end of the grace period. You would have to pay back the loan with interest. For the latest information on the Automatic Premium Loan Interest Rate, please refer to the “What is the interest rates?” table below. Please take note that the interest rate is subject to change by the Company from time to time.
What is Indebtedness with Interest
If the Total Investment Value is insufficient to deduct for policy fees and insurance charges, such unpaid policy fees and insurance charges shall be deducted from the rider’s cash value if the rider has acquired any cash value. The amount that deducted shall be charged with interest at the prevailing interest rates to be determined by the Company from time to time and the cash value utilised to pay for the policy fees and insurance charges together with the interest charged will become indebtedness of your policy.
Can I borrow money against my life insurance policy?
If you own a whole life or an endowment insurance policy, you can take out a policy loan against the cash value that had built up in the policy. Generally, the policy will acquire cash value after being in force for three full policy years. Compound interest is chargeable on the policy loan at a rate at which the Company shall determine from time to time. Any Policy Loan outstanding will be deducted before any claims is payable. The current Policy Loan Interest Rate will be temporarily revised from 6.8% to 6.4% per annum effective 1st January 2021 and this interest rate is subject to change by the Company from time to time.
As for Great Universal Life policy, you can take out a policy loan against the policy account value net of surrender charge (if any). The Policy Loan Interest Rate is the prevailing crediting rate plus 2%. This interest rate is subject to change by the Company from time to time.
When can I apply for a policy loan?
A loan is available when the policy has acquired a cash value. A policy loan based on a percentage of the gross cash value subject to deduction of outstanding loan or APL, if any can be granted. Policy loans are not available for investment-linked, HealthCare and term policies.
