Regulator shares how much insurance you need

Oct 10, 2023 1:30 am

Hi


The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), in conjunction with the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS), Association of Financial Advisers (Singapore) (AFAS) and Life Insurance Association (LIA), has launched a Basic Financial Planning Guide to help Singaporeans take steps to enhance their financial well-being. 


This is how much insurance you need according to the financial planning guide:


Obtain insurance protection of

  • 9 times annual income for death and total and permanent disability.
  • 4 times annual income for critical illness.


Do you have at least these coverages? Do you agree?


Of course, these are rules of thumb. Do speak with a professional adviser, as everyone's needs differ.
