This is the foundation upon which FWD Life Protection establishes itself, offering a solution that not only secures your financial future but also enhances your quality of life through its multifaceted benefits.
FWD Life Protection assures an elevated level of coverage that accompanies you for life, allowing the conversion of your policy’s value into a dependable source of income whenever necessity arises. This plan distinguishes itself by providing extensive coverage that includes critical illness benefits, catering to early-stage cancer and intensive care needs, among others.
Adding to its comprehensive nature, the plan includes the perk of 24/7 free teleconsultation through the FWD HealthFirst programme, an exclusive offering for policyholders.

Features At a Glance
#1. Enhancing Your Safety Net with Coverage Amplification
Securing your financial well-being against the unpredictability of life is paramount.

This amplified protection is designed to last until you reach your chosen minimum protection level (MPL) age, either 75 or 85 years old. Beyond this age, to ensure continued peace of mind, the enhanced coverage gradually decreases by 10% annually over the following 5 years. This approach guarantees that you will retain at least 50% of your increased coverage, independent of the Participating Fund’s performance. This feature is crafted to provide additional security, ensuring that your financial future remains safeguarded as you age.
