Statutory warning:
"Some benefits are guaranteed and some benefits are variable with returns based on the future performance of your Insurer carrying on life insurance business.If your policy offers guaranteed returns then these will be clearly marked "guaranteed" in the illustration table on this page.If your policy offers variable returns then the illustrations on this page will show two different rates of assumed future investment returns.These assumed rates of return are not guaranteed and they are not the upper or lower limits of what you might get back, as the value of your policy is dependent on a number of factors including future investment performance."
Notes:
i) The non-guaranteed benefits (1) and (2) in above illustration are calculated so that they are consistent with the Projected Investment Rate of Return assumption of 4% p.a. (Scenario 1) and 8% p.a. (Scenario 2) respectively.In other words, in preparing this benefit illustration, it is assumed that the Projected Investment Rate of Return that LICI will be able to earn throughout the term of the policy will be 4% p.a. or 8% p.a., as the case may be.The Projected Investment Rate of Return is not guaranteed.
ii) The main objective of the illustration is that the client is able to appreciate the features of the product and the flow of benefits in different circumstances with some level of quantification.
