GREAT Flexi Saver is a non-participating, single premium universal life (UL) insurance plan. It is a guaranteed issuance offer (GIO) plan and 100% capital guaranteed from Day 1. This plan automatically renews monthly up to the policy anniversary on which the life assured is age 100 next birthday. On the policy anniversary when you are age 100 next birthday, your account value# will be paid back to you and the policy will terminate thereafter.
# The account value is the single premium you have paid, less any withdrawal amount, plus the interest earned.
Universal life (UL) plans are products which offer you insurance coverage and also invest part of your premiums in the insurer’s Non-participating fund. You may refer to Your Guide to Life Insurance (“YGTLI”) for more information.
Most of the existing universal life products in the Singapore market are protection-oriented. However, GREAT Flexi Saver is a not a protection-oriented UL plan. It does not provide high insurance cover, and the coverage is not guaranteed for the whole of life as we reserve the right to terminate your policy on the monthly anniversary following a 90 days’ termination notice from The Great Eastern Life Assurance Company Limited (GELS).
GREAT Flexi Saver is offered to selected policyholder(s) who have at least one Great Eastern Life policy that has matured or will be maturing within a selected period to be determined by GELS. GELS reserves the right to update the eligibility listing from time to time at our absolute discretion.
You will receive an email if you have given marketing consent to us, where you will be informed of the maximum eligible single premium you can utilise. You may also check with your financial representative about this. You will need to know your maximum eligible single premium and your maturing policy number in the application process.
After your policy is in-forced, you may no longer top-up your single premium, even if it was below your maximum eligible single premium.
GREAT Flexi Saver provides you with financial protection against death.
If the life assured dies before the policy anniversary on which the life assured is age 80 next birthday, we will pay a lump sum benefit of 105% of the single premium less 105% of the total amount of any withdrawals made, OR the account value#, whichever is higher. The policy will terminate after we make this payment.
If the life assured dies on or after the policy anniversary on which the life assured is age 80 next birthday, we will pay a lump sum benefit of 101% of the single premium less 101% of the total amount of any withdrawals made, OR the account value#, whichever is higher. The policy will terminate after we make this payment.
There are certain situations when we will not pay the benefits under this policy. You can refer to the Product Summary and your policy contract for more details.
Your account value# will earn interest based on a crediting rate that is determined and updated monthly. The interest will be credited at the end of every business month.
# The account value is the single premium you have paid, less any withdrawal amount, plus the interest earned.
You may refer to the crediting rates here.
The crediting rate may change periodically and it will be determined by us on a monthly basis. The prevailing crediting rate will be updated on Great Eastern’s website. Once published on Great Eastern’s website, the crediting rate for that calendar month is guaranteed.
Please note that the published crediting rates are on a per annum basis and will be converted to daily rates on a compound basis assuming 365 days per year.
The crediting rate that is applied to your account value# is based on the date your policy is inforced with Great Eastern. If your policy is not inforced for the full calendar month, the interest earned will be accrued on a daily basis.
If you purchase, surrender or partially withdraw your policy in the middle of a calendar month, the interest earned will be accrued accordingly.
Please refer to the illustration as an example.
# The account value is the single premium you have paid, less any withdrawal amount, plus the interest earned.
You may check the account value# of your policy via the Great Eastern app. This account value is updated on every monthly anniversary of the policy.
We will publish the crediting rate of the next month by the 1st business day of the current month. This rate can be viewed on our website.
# The account value is the single premium you have paid, less any withdrawal amount, plus the interest earned.
The policy will automatically renew every month, up to the policy anniversary on which the life assured is age 100 next birthday.
Please note that unlike most insurance policies, GREAT Flexi Saver can be terminated on the monthly anniversary following a 90 days’ termination notice from GELS.
GREAT Flexi Saver has no surrender charges. You may surrender the policy at any time after your policy is in force. We will pay the account value# when you surrender your policy.
However, partial withdrawals are only allowed if used to pay for premiums of a new Great Eastern Life policy, subject to eligibility**. You may purchase this new Great Eastern Life policy for yourself, or your loved ones, subject to eligibility checks and underwriting, if any.
Please speak to your financial representative for more information. Alternatively, you may visit any of our Customer Service Centres
# The account value is the single premium you have paid, less any withdrawal amount, plus the interest earned.
