Premiums

Retirement & Pension Plans premium: what decides it?

Two people buying the same retirement & pension plans can pay very different premiums. Here is what insurers look at, and how to pay less without cutting the cover you need.

What it depends on

  • Age of the person or vehicle being insured
  • Sum insured or cover amount chosen
  • Health, lifestyle and medical history (for life and health cover)
  • Add-ons and riders selected
  • Claim history and no-claim bonus (for motor and health)
  • City or zone, occupation and policy term

How to pay a lower premium

  • Buy early: premiums are lowest when you are young and healthy
  • Choose the right cover, not the cheapest or the biggest
  • Compare insurers on claim record and exclusions, not just price
  • Pick only the add-ons you actually need
  • Renew on time to keep your no-claim bonus and waiting-period credit
