Risk

Exchange Rate Risk

You are subject to exchange rate risks for the Policy denominated in currencies other than the local currency. Exchange rates fluctuate from time to time. You may suffer a loss of your benefit values and the subsequent premium payments (if any) may be higher than your initial premium payment as a result of exchange rate fluctuations.

Credit Risk of Issuer

The life insurance product is issued and underwritten by Hong Kong Life. The premium to be paid by you would become part of the assets of Hong Kong Life and that you and your Policy are subject to the credit risk of Hong Kong Life. In the worst case, you may lose all the premium paid and benefit amount.

Inflation Risk

When reviewing the values shown in the Insurance Proposal, please note that future medical costs/ cost of living in the future is likely to be higher than it is today due to inflation.

Important Policy Provisions

Renewability

The Policy may be renewed on each Policy Anniversary for a further twelve (12) months' period by continued payment of premium, at such premium rates and terms as may be determined by Hong Kong Life at the time of renewal when due. Hong Kong Life reserves the right to cancel the Policy at any time by giving thirty (30) days' notice in writing to the Policyowner. Whenever the Policy is so cancelled, Hong Kong Life shall return the unearned portion of premium paid without interest. Cancellation shall be without prejudice to any claim arising prior to the date of cancellation.

Automatic Revision of Benefit

Hong Kong Life reserves the rights to revise the benefits payable under the Policy from time to time in order to keep the level of benefits in line with the changing medical costs. Hong Kong Life shall notify the Policyowner in writing at least thirty (30) days before the Policy Anniversary effecting such revision specifying, among others, the revised Outpatient Benefit Schedule, the effective date, the new premium and its due date. The new premium shall be determined by Hong Kong Life in accordance with its rate basis then applicable and the revised Outpatient Benefit Schedule and shall take effect on the date specified unless the Policyowner declined in writing in which case the Policy shall terminate automatically on the next premium due date following the date of such notification.

Automatic Termination

  1. upon the death of the Life Insured; or
  2. on the Policy Anniversary on or immediately following the Life Insured's seventy-first (71st) birthday; or
  3. if and when the Plan expires; or
  4. on the written notification from the Policyowner declining any revised Outpatient Benefit Schedule under the Automatic Revision of Benefit; or

Others

Premium Adjustment

Hong Kong Life has the right to review and adjust the Plan's premium rates for particular risk classes upon renewal, but not for any individual customer. Hong Kong Life may adjust premium rates because of several factors, such as Hong Kong Life's claims and persistency experience, expenses directly related to and indirect expenses allocated to the Plan, medical price inflation, projected future medical costs and any applicable changes in benefit.

Insurance Costs

Part of the premium pays for the insurance and related costs (if any).

Cooling-off Period

If you are not satisfied with your Policy, you have a right to cancel it within the cooling-off period and obtain a refund of any premium(s) and levy(ies) paid (in the original payment currency) to Hong Kong Life without any interest. A written notice signed by you should be received directly by Hong Kong Life Insurance Limited at 15/F Cosco Tower, 183 Queen's Road Central, Hong Kong within the cooling-off period (that is, the period of 21 calendar days immediately following either the day of delivery of the Policy or the Cooling-off Notice to you or your nominated representative (whichever is the earlier)). After the expiration of the cooling-off period, if you cancel the Policy before the end of the term, the projected Total Surrender Value (if applicable) may be less than the Total Premiums Paid.

Cancellation

After the cooling-off period, the Policyowner can request cancellation of the Policy by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to Hong Kong Life, provided that there has been no benefit payment under the Policy during the relevant Policy Year.
