Extensive coverage for life’s changing needs
To match your changing life needs and priorities, PRUlife multiplier enables you to increase coverage upon life events6 by purchasing another Whole Life, Endowment or Term plan without any medical check-ups.
Secure greater coverage
You can also get added peace of mind by supplementing your coverage with:
• Early Crisis Cover Limited Pay, a limited premium payment term supplementary benefit which provides extensive coverage to a list of early to late stages of critical illnesses7. The payout will help to supplement the possible loss of income, giving you peace of mind during your recuperation period, without reducing the sum assured of your PRUlife multiplier.
• Early Crisis Cover Multiplier, a limited premium payment term supplementary benefit which provides whole of life protection for early and intermediate stages of critical illnesses8. It has the same Multiplier Benefit4 as the Critical Illness coverage in your PRUlife multiplier.
• Comprehensive Personal Accident III, which provides you with an additional lump sum in the event of Accidental Death and Dismemberment. This supplementary benefit also gives you the option9 to be reimbursed for your medical expenses incurred as a result of an accident or receive a weekly income when you are unable to work in all duties of your usual occupation due to an accident.
• Early Payer Security, which waives the premium payments for a fixed period10 upon diagnosis of Early or Intermediate Stage Medical Conditions, so that you need not worry about your loved ones losing coverage while you concentrate on your treatment.
• Payer Security III / Payer Security Plus safeguards your loved one’s policy in the event that Death, Critical Illness or Total and Permanent Disability strikes you. Payer Security III waives the remaining premiums of your child’s policy till the policy anniversary before he or she turns 25, or the end of the premium payment term, whichever is earlier. Payer Security Plus provides a longer benefit term and it waives the remaining premiums of your loved one’s policy until the policy anniversary before you reach 85, or the end of premium payment term, whichever is earlier.
How PRUlife multiplier works
Mr Lee (male, non-smoker), age 30 next birthday, decides to make premium payments of $327 per month for 15 years only for his whole of life plan, i.e. he stops paying premiums by the age of 45. In the next 15 years, Mr Lee pays about $58,860 and is well-covered with a sum assured of $100,000. In the event of Death, Total and Permanent Disability2 or Terminal Illness2 before 65 years, the multiplier benefit will ensure a $300,000 payout, or a multiplier benefit of $250,000 on Critical Illness.
If Mr Lee has not made a claim at the age of 65, he will continue to be covered for Death and Critical Illness, or alternatively, if Mr Lee decides to surrender his plan, he can look forward to receiving a cash value of $109,02211.

Note:
Buying a life insurance policy is a long-term commitment. An
early termination of the policy usually involves high costs and
the surrender value payable (if any) may be less than the total
premiums paid.
Buying health insurance products that are not suitable for you
may impact your ability to finance your future healthcare needs.
You are recommended to seek advice from a qualified Prudential
Financial Consultant for a financial analysis before purchasing a
policy suitable to meet your needs.
Premiums for some of the supplementary benefits are not
guaranteed and may be adjusted based on future claims experience.
