Investment-linked Insurance and Suitability

Separate policy and investment layers, then master fund risk, charges, unit values, client assessment and disclosure.

1Two product layers, one client decision

Identify which layer creates the risk, who bears it and whether it suits the client.

Policy layer and investment layer

  • An investment-linked product remains a long-term insurance contract; the customer does not directly own the related fund.Definition
  • Market, credit, rate, currency, liquidity and concentration risk must be linked to the investment option.Exam
  • Investment value can rise or fall; non-guaranteed performance is not an insurer promise.Trap

Charges, suitability and disclosure

  • Charges may come from premium, policy account, fund assets or surrender proceeds; the deduction point determines the impact.Numbers
  • Risk willingness differs from loss-bearing capacity; willingness does not prove capacity for a severe short-term loss.Compare
  • Term, liquidity, charges, non-guaranteed elements and recommendation rationale should be clearly disclosed.Exam

現金流
