Why You Need to Act Now

  • Life Expectancy is Rising: Singaporeans are living longer, but extended lifespans mean more years of health-related expenses. Have you factored this into your current coverage? Not doing so could erode years of savings and derail even the most carefully laid retirement plans.

  • Critical Illnesses are Expensive: Did you know that on average, patients struck with a critical illness take around 3 to 5 years to recover and return to being economically productive? This leaves many families under-prepared for long recovery periods and lead to degradation in standard of living.

  • Peace of Mind for You and Your Loved Ones: Ensuring you are fully protected with life and critical illness insurance isn’t just about safeguarding yourself—it’s about giving your family financial security if the unexpected happens.

What Are the Essential Insurance Coverage Recommended for Working Adults?


According to the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Basic Financial Planning Guide2, here are the basic rules of thumb for protection that you can consider.

Whole/
Term Life Insurance

  • Provides financial support to your loved ones in case of premature death, helping them cover ongoing lifestyle expenses.
  • The coverage amount recommended is at least 9 times your annual income.

Critical Illness Insurance

  • Covers major medical costs and offers a lump sum payout to ease the financial burden of long-term recovery.
  • The coverage amount recommended is at least 4 times your annual income.


For example, someone with the median monthly income of $5,197 should be covered for death & total permanent disability to the tune of at least $561,276. This person should also be insured against critical illness for at least $249,456.

About Hiral Kakaiya

As a 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 and 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿, I believe most financial planning gets the sequence wrong. While others start with investment growth, I begin with 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻—because building wealth without securing your foundation is like constructing a house on sand.

 

My practice centers on what I call the 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻-𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱: systematically addressing 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆, and 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 before pursuing accumulation strategies. This approach stems from witnessing too many families discover 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗽𝘀 only after life-changing events occur.

 

With credentials spanning both financial and estate planning, I specialize in creating 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 where protection and legacy planning work seamlessly together. I'm 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆, which means my recommendations are based purely on what serves your family's best interests—not sales quotas or corporate incentives.

 

I work primarily with professionals and families who understand that 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 isn't just about growing wealth, but about ensuring it 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 while protecting against life's uncertainties along the way.

 

My mission is straightforward: help families build 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 that provide security today and create 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 tomorrow.
