How LIFE works through Death Settlement Option (DSO)?
It is a thoughtful feature designed to support your legacy planning through DSO, ensuring your benefits are passed on according to your wishes. 

You may choose to have the following payout options, helping to support them in a way that best suits their needs.
Option A - Staggered payment

Receive payouts over time based on your preferred structure:

Level payout – Fixed amount paid consistently over a selected period.

Increasing payout - Payments increase progressively over time

Customised payout - fully tailored payout schedule based on your needs

Flexible payouts - monthly or annually, from 5 up to 20 years.
Option B - Lump Sum Payment

A selected percentage of the benefit is paid out in one lump sum

Option C - Combination of A & B

A mix of staggered payments and lump sum payment, offering both immediate and long-term financial support

  

Total allocation must equal 100%


  


Special arrangement payout (Only applicable for Option A & C):
Your beneficiaries may receive advance payouts under specific circumstances:

For life events:
- Retrenchment
- Diagnosis of Critical Illness in early or intermediate stage
- Marriage
- Newborn child
- Reaching a selected age milestone

Default advance payout: 5% of total entitlement (customisable from 0% to 100%)
For severe situations:
- Advanced Critical Illness
- Total & Permanent Disability
- ICU admission (≥10 days with life support)

Remaining balance will be paid in full immediately.

 
Important Notes:
1. Minimum payout per beneficiary: RM2,000 per month OR RM24,000 per year
2. DSO is only applicable if the approved death benefit is RM500,000 and above.
3. If the approved death benefit is below RM500,000, it will be paid as one lump sum
