Tokio Marine TM Term VIP For Your Company Keyman Insurance ?

Keyman InsuranceBuying a Keyman Insurance for your company's CEO or senior management can be a tricky business.

Simply because most insurers require these head honchos to go for a medical examination once the sum at risk crosses the insurance company's risk appetite and many a times, that amount is also pretty low or not even worth considering.

Then some financial advisers would attempt to propose that these top brass take on individual life insurance where the firm might feel that it is quite costly to even consider purchasing. Tokio Marine Life Insurance or the Tokio Marine Group has recently added an upmarket Term policy into their arsenal of innovative insurance plans. Appropriately named as TM Term VIP; it is to address the needs of individuals who need high coverage. The following are some of the features of this value for money policy:

Maximising your SRS with an Endowment Plan

SRS (Supplementary Retirement Scheme) was once a household word when it was introduced and somehow now it has lost its pizazz. However, it is still a worthwhile consideration for your retirement and tax planning in Singapore

For people who are beginning to set aside money for their retirement plus tax planning and are not familiar with SRS, here're some examples:

SRS example in Singapore
                                              Another Example:
TM Retirement@63
In a nutshell , the things you need to know if you are utilising your money for SRS are:
  1. There will be annual savings in your income tax if you belong to the higher tax bracket.
  2. Your SRS contribution can be used to buy Insurance policies which appreciates with time & get you more for retirement.
  3. Upon withdrawal, only 50% is subject to tax & you can expect greater savings should you spread your withdrawals over a 10 years period.
  4. The interest rate on balances in the Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS) Account which are not invested is currently approximately hovering at 0.05% p.a. (POSB 2012)
  5. Moves you into lower tax bracket
  6. SRS contributions must be made by 31st December each year
  7. Singaporeans annual cap-$12,750, Foreigners annual cap-$29,750 (as they do not have CPF)
Singapore Tax Rates Table 2012
So that leads us to the reason why this post is written. Tokio Marine has launched a single premium endowment policy called TM Retirement@63 on 8 January 2015. It basically provides 10 annual Cash Benefits starting from policy anniversary at which the assured reaches age 63 on next birthday (which is also the payout date). Once the client receives all 10 annual payouts, the policy then terminates.
The nice thing about the plan is that it is also available in cash mode & is a guaranteed acceptance policy. As with most insurance, there is also some form of death benefit unlike other SRS investments which basically returns you whatever is left in the account at the point of death (which at times can mean a loss in capital).

If you are still wondering which insurance plan is suitable for SRS, then look no further and contact this FPC for more details about TM Retirement@63 !

TM Infinite VIP - Continuous Retirement Annuity for Life

Whether it is an annuity that you are looking for or a legacy you wish to leave behind for your TM Infinite VIP via its distribution channels like the banks and direct agents and the take up rate of this product has been fast & encouraging that the policy will probably be pulled out soon when the tranche has been reached. (This could be seen with its sister product, TM Legacy VIP which was pulled out on 21 July 2014).
children or grandchildren; for the past year since May 2013, Tokio Marine Life Insurance Singapore (TMLS) has been selling a single premium plan known as

In any case, the surviving TM Infinite VIP runs on a simple model:

  1. Minimum Single premium of S$133,350
  2. Gets you a payout of S$500 EVERY MONTH after 5 years (credited monthly into a S'pore bank account)
  3. The payout continues as long as the assured is alive
  4. Should Death occurs, 101% of Single premiums paid + Non Guaranteed Terminal Dividend
  5. Minimum age 1 year old next birthday
  6. Maximum age 70 year old next birthday

      TIPs
  • If you want more payout, just multiply accordingly (eg $266,700 gets you $1000 monthly payout)
  • Greater advantage will be to buy on the life of a young child, since payout continues as long as assured is alive.
  • Good option to prepare for a child who will be going to University as their MONTHLY living expense.
Did I mention that you can get your capital back* ? Ask for a proposal and take a look yourself!

Product Withdrawal of TM Legacy VIP by 21 July 2014

All good things do come to an end as one of the hot selling plans for High Net
TM Legacy VIP
Worth individuals are being pulled out due to revisions to the insurance regulatory framework in Singapore.

As quoted in a letter from the management in Tokio Marine Life Insurance Singapore ... "If the proposed capital requirement calibrations were adopted,  products that rely heavily on taking investment risks to generate adequate returns, will become unsustainable."

OK, this post is about a month late, but better late than never.

Tokio Marine Life Insurance (TMLS) did some revamp to one of their products, TM Enrich. Quite expected since the current economic outlook is not too rosy.

Tokio Marine Life Singapore Branding Campaign

As we enter into the early hours of 12 Dec 2011, I just want to be the 1st to announce that Tokio Marine Life Singapore (TMLS) is starting their BRANDING campaign today!

Why? Simply, right up till today (or shall I say yesterday), most of the public does not know that TMLS has acquired Asia Life a couple of years back and is already one of the growing Life Insurance companies in Singapore. Since TMLS has been somewhat living in the shadows of its parent firm, Tokio Marine Group; many individual still assumes that the company does marine and general insurance only (most likely due to their name).

So today marks the day which Singapore will know Tokio Marine Life Singapore (TMLS) is not only in the life insurance business, but they market employee benefits (group insurance) for companies as well! So look out for their branding campaign running throughout the next 12 weeks on CNA and Channel 5 TV Commercials, MRT plying the NS and EW lines, taxi billboards and on the 15th December, TMLS will be shown for the entire run of the movie screening schedule of the blockbuster hit "Mission Impossible 4" @ Golden Village and Cathay Cinemas!

Maybe with all that hype and more recognitions to come, you might want to join us to understand what makes the company ticks and grow so quickly in this highly competitive arena of life insurance business! Feel free to find out more about us and even to start a career with us!
