The term life insurance plan used to be unpopular.

But in recent years, it became one of the key insurance policies to have.

What changed?

With medical and technological advances, the mortality (or death) rates of Singaporeans have drastically decreased over the years, which led to longer life expectancies.

Because of that, term plans now reflect a lower cost of insurance compared to decades before. This meant that you’re able to get higher coverage at a lower cost.

In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about term life insurance plans in Singapore.
