Investment-linked
life insurance is a life insurance plan
where the value of benefits are, wholly
or partly linked to investment performance
of a separate investment-link fund(s). This
is usually done by linking the value of
the policy to units in a special unitised
fund managed by the insurance company. The
values of the units will directly reflect
the values of the underlying assets of the
fund, and fluctuate according to the investment
performance.
When a policyowner pays premium for the
investment-linked policy, a portion of
the premium will be allocated for insurance
and expense charges, and the balance will
be allocated to purchase units in the
investment-linked fund(s). The investment-linked
funds operate on similar principle as
unit trust.

Important Notices:
Buying an investment-linked
life insurance policy is a long-term commitment.
An early termination of the policy involves
high costs and the withdrawal value dependent
on prevailing market values of the underlying
assets of the unit fund. Therefore, the
withdrawal value may be less than the total
premiums paid.
The policy value may
rise or fall as the performance of the funds
are not guaranteed. The investment risk
under the policy will be solely borne by
the policy owner.

Sejati Insurance are funds invested in accordance
with Syariah principles. Ideal for both
Muslims as well as non-Muslims, both funds
are available with Great Eastern's GreatLife
Portfolio - a powerful plan that gives you
the best of both worlds: protection and
investment. We have also appointed Syariah
Advisors to advise us on all Syariah matters
