Life insurance policies and benchmark of 20%

Hi Mr Tan,
You always mention that Benchmark for Deduction should not more than 20% after 25 yrs for life insurance.
Do you mind to tell me which are the insurers that meet this benchmark ?

REPLY
None of the life insurance policies in the market now meet my benchmark of 20% deduction. It is better for the consumer to buy term insurance and invest your savings in an indexed fund. The long term cost is likely to be less than the 20% deduction. Read my book on financial planning (available at www.tankinlian.com/ishop).

If consumers reject the existing life insurance products that offer a low yield, the insurance companies will be forced to offer new products that give better value to consumers, i.e. meet the benchmark of 20%. It is possible for them to achieve this goal.
