Additional Return to Build Your Wealth

The Plan not only provides Guaranteed Cash Value, Terminal Dividend (non-guaranteed)3 may also be payable at or after the end of 5th Policy Year when the Policy is fully surrendered by the Policyowner, upon the death of the Life Insured (provided that there is no named and surviving Contingent Life Insured who will become the new Life Insured)or upon Policy Maturity, whichever is earlier.

When the Policy is partially surrendered by the Policyowner, Terminal Dividend (non-guaranteed)3 may be payable at or after the end of 5th Policy Year. The payable amount is equal to the Terminal Dividend (non-guaranteed)3 attributable to the reduced portion of Principal Amount4. Terminal Dividend (non-guaranteed)3 will not accumulate in the Policy.

Flexible Change of Life Insured5

While the Plan is in force and the Life Insured is alive, the Policyowner may change the Life Insured for unlimited times starting from the 1st Policy Anniversary as follows5. This provides you the flexibility in your financial arrangement.

    • Change of one Life Insured5
      The Guaranteed Cash Value will remain unchanged and continue to accumulate in the Policy till the Plan matures.
    • Change to two Life Insureds5
      The Principal Amount4 of the Policy will be converted into two new policies of the same Basic Plan in accordance to the portion as specified by the Policyowner. The Guaranteed Cash Value will be proportionally converted into the two new policies in accordance to the same portion as specified and continue to accumulate in the Policy till the Plan matures.
Contingent Life Insured6 and Contingent Policyowner7 Arrangement for Policy Continuum

During the lifetime of the Life Insured and while the Plan is in force, the Policyowner may designate a Contingent Life Insured6. In the event of the death of the Life Insured on or after the 1st Policy Anniversary, the Contingent Life Insured will become the new Life Insured. This sustains the Policy and avoids the possibility of Policy termination due to the unexpected death of the Life Insured.

Moreover, to safeguard the wealth management planning, during the lifetime of the Life Insured and while the Plan is in force, Policyowner may designate a Contingent Policyowner7 so that the ownership of the Policy will be transferred to the Contingent Policyowner in the event of death of the Policyowner.

  • Basic Plan

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.

Currency Risk

RMB is currently not freely convertible and conversion of RMB through banks in Hong Kong is subject to the rules, guidelines, regulations and conditions from the banks and/or Relevant Authorities from time to time. The actual conversion arrangement will depend on the restrictions prevailing at the relevant time.

Liquidity Risk / Long Term Commitment

The Plan is designed to be held until the Maturity / Expiry Date. If you partially surrender or terminate the Policy prior to the Maturity / Expiry Date, a loss of the premium paid may be resulted.

The premium of the Plan should be paid in full for the whole payment term. If you discontinue the payment, the Policy may lapse and a loss of the premium paid may be resulted.

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.

Market Risk

The amount of dividends (if any) of the Plan depends principally on the factors including investment returns, claim payments, policy persistency rates, operation expenses and tax. Hence the amount of dividends (if any) is not guaranteed and may be changed over time. The actual dividends payable may be higher or lower than the expected amount and value at the time when the Policy was issued.

Inflation Risk

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

Upon the change of the Life Insured(s), if the New Life Insured(s) commit suicide, while sane or insane, within one (1) year from the date of endorsement (in the case of one (1) New Life Insured), Issue Date of the new policies (in the case of two (2) New Life Insureds) (where applicable) or date of any reinstatement, whichever is the latest, the liability of Hong Kong Life shall be limited to (i)(a) a refund of the Total Premiums Paid for the Plan (without interest) or (i)(b) the Guaranteed Cash Value and Terminal Dividend (if any), whichever is greater, less (ii) Indebtedness (if any).

Premiums paid will not be refunded should the Policy be voided by Hong Kong Life.

Upon the change of the Life Insured(s), Hong Kong Life shall not contest the validity of the Policy after the change has been in force during the lifetime of the New Life Insured(s) for two (2) years from the date of endorsement (in the case of one (1) New Life Insured), Issue Date of the new policies (in the case of two (2) New Life Insureds) (where applicable) or date of any reinstatement, whichever is the latest, except for (i) the non-payment of premiums, (ii) fraud or (iii) misstatement of Age and/or sex as specified in the Misstatement of Age and/or Sex provisions.

Others

Insurance Costs

The Plan is an insurance plan with a savings element. 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.

Dividends

Hong Kong Life determines the amount of divisible surplus that will be distributed in the form of Terminal Dividend. Terminal Dividend will be determined according to the Policy's terms and conditions and in compliance with the relevant legislative and regulatory requirements as well as relevant actuarial standards. Terminal Dividend is available at the termination of the policies.

The amount of divisible surplus depends principally on the factors including investment returns, claim payments, policy persistency rates, operation expenses and tax. Hence the amount of Terminal Dividend is not guaranteed and may be changed over time. The actual Terminal Dividend payable may be higher or lower than the expected amount at the time when the policies were issued.

Partial Surrender

In case of Partial Surrender, the Guaranteed Cash Value and Terminal Dividend of the Policy will be decreased accordingly. This will also decrease the Principal Amount, Total Surrender Value, Total Death Benefit and other benefits (if applicable) of the Policy.

Policy Loan

After the Plan has acquired a Guaranteed Cash Value and while the Policy is in force, the Policyowner may, upon the sole security and satisfactory assignment of the Policy to Hong Kong Life, apply for a Policy Loan from the Plan. Any loan on the Policy shall bear interest at a rate declared by Hong Kong Life from time to time. Interest on the loan shall accrue and compound daily from the date of loan. The Policy Loan Interest Rate is not guaranteed and will be changed from time to time. The loan and the interest accrued thereon shall constitute Indebtedness against the Policy. Interest shall be due on each Policy Anniversary subsequent to the date of loan. In the event that the Indebtedness of the Policy equals to or exceeds the Guaranteed Cash Value, the Policy will terminate. Any Policy Loan and accrued loan interest may reduce the Total Surrender Value and Total Death Benefit of the Policy.

Non-Protected Deposit

The Plan is not equivalent to, nor should it be treated as a substitute for, time deposit. The Plan is not a protected deposit and is not protected by the Deposit Protection Scheme in Hong Kong.

Dispute on Selling Process and Product
