Voting Question: Some questions to ask about life insurance terms?
Note, this is not a selling or commercial thread! I just post this question to ask about some life insurance terms which I came across when reading a personal money management booklet. Sorry for the rather long post. Please bear with the questions
For a life insurance, there is a sum assured. Is this pay out the same when the insurer dies or makes a claim or when the policy reaches maturity date?
Does making a claim means that the insured person has already died?
There is a term called “Projected claim amount”. The booklet explains it as the amount to be paid by the company when the insured person dies. This amount is not guaranteed and depends on the performance of the participating fund. So when the insured person dies, is the amount paid out equals to “sum assured + projected claim amount” ?
There is also another term “Projected maturity value”, which is explained as the value a policy holder receives on maturity date. It is not guaranteed and depends on the performance of the participating fund. So when a life insurance policy reaches maturity, does the insured person get the projected maturity value or projected maturity value + sum assured ?
Lastly, there is a term “Projected cash value”. It is explained as the cash amount which the company will pay the policy holder when he cancels the policy pre-maturely. So when the person cancels his policy before maturity or before his death, is the projected cash value the only amount he will get? What about bonuses or sum assured?
That is all. Thanks to all who read through the questions or helped to explain the terms.
