Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI) Comparison:
$300,000 Death, Total and Permanent Disability and Critical Illness covering till age 65
Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI) refers to insurance products, such as term and whole life plans, that you can purchase directly from a life insurance company without the involvement of a financial advisory (FA) representative. Since DPI is sold without financial advice, no commission is charged, and you generally pay a lower premium as a result.
For the purpose of this article, we will only compare Direct Term insurance based on a sum assured of $300,000 covering Death, Total and Permanent Disability and Critical illness till the age of 65. The maximum sum assured you can apply per insurer is up to $400,000 sum assured.

Coverage Scenarios
We’ve used these coverage scenarios in our comparison tables
:
Policy Coverage Till 65 Years Old
At age 65, we estimate that our dependants (e.g. spouse, children and elderly parents) are no longer reliant on our income, and existing assets and savings are sufficient to provide for them should anything unexpected happen to us.
Death/Terminal Illness (TI) coverage
This amount could be used to provide for our dependants, pay off existing loans, or as a gift to your beneficiaries in the event of premature death.
Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) coverage
This amount could be used to provide for your long-term healthcare needs, dependants, and service existing loans.
Critical Illness (CI) coverage
This amount allows you to replace the loss of income in the event of a critical illness diagnosis and provide for alternative treatment needs.
Why buy Term Insurance?
 If you have dependants, life insurance ensures that they are protected financially should anything unfortunate happen to you. Term insurance plans will pay out in cases of death, terminal and critical illness, or total and permanent disability and are much more affordable than whole life insurance, so you can plan for the future while living your best life today.

## **Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI) Comparison:**
## **\$300,000 Death, Total and Permanent Disability and Critical Illness covering till age 65**
Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI) refers to insurance products, such as term and whole life plans, that you can purchase directly from a life insurance company without the involvement of a financial advisory (FA) representative. Since DPI is sold without financial advice, no commission is charged, and you generally pay a lower premium as a result.
For the purpose of this article, we will only compare Direct Term insurance based on a sum assured of \$300,000 covering Death, Total and Permanent Disability and Critical illness till the age of 65. The maximum sum assured you can apply per insurer is up to \$400,000 sum assured.

## **Coverage Scenarios**
We’ve used these coverage scenarios in our comparison tables**:**
- **Policy Coverage Till 65 Years Old**
At age 65, we estimate that our dependants (e.g. spouse, children and elderly parents) are no longer reliant on our income, and existing assets and savings are sufficient to provide for them should anything unexpected happen to us.
- **Death/Terminal Illness (TI) coverage**
This amount could be used to provide for our dependants, pay off existing loans, or as a gift to your beneficiaries in the event of premature death.
- **Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) coverage**
This amount could be used to provide for your long-term healthcare needs, dependants, and service existing loans.
- **Critical Illness (CI) coverage**
This amount allows you to replace the loss of income in the event of a critical illness diagnosis and provide for alternative treatment needs.
**Why buy Term Insurance?** If you have dependants, life insurance ensures that they are protected financially should anything unfortunate happen to you. Term insurance plans will pay out in cases of death, terminal and critical illness, or total and permanent disability and are much more affordable than whole life insurance, so you can plan for the future while living your best life today.
