Make a lump sum investment

Hello Mr. Tan,

You have mentioned in your blog that up to 21 months of savings can be taken away to pay the agent to sell a monthly sum investment-linked policy. Does it mean it will be more worthwhile to buy a lump sum unit trust instead? I'm looking for long term investment actually.

My insurance agent has been asking me to buy monthly sum investment-linked policy and recommends that I treat it like a savings plan. I am not too sure whether I should take his advice.

You should invest in a single premium ILP, such as the Flexi Link from NTUC Income. It has low charges, compared to a monthly plan.

You can see a comparison of the charges here:
