What is TPD insurance?

TPD insurance cover or protection strategy to give a lump sum benefit if you become totally permanently disable and unable to work due to illness or accident.

Life is full of uncertainty; an accident or sudden illness can change everything in your life. Most importantly, your financial circumstances and lifestyle can be impacted significantly if those events happen.

Often, it may not seem very clear to take both life insurance and TPD cover. Remember, life cover mainly pays the benefit to your nominee when you will be no more around. However, TPD will help continue your life if you become permanently disabled due to sickness or injury. It is life protection that underpins and help support you to fulfil the financial commitments. TPD cover can help to settle any outstanding mortgage, medical and other living expenses because of permanent disability caused by illness or injury.

What’s included in TPD Insurance

Similar to life insurance, there are different options available in TPD. Such as:

Accident Cover – Pays a lump sum benefit which is the insured amount if you become permanently disable and unable to work due to accident.

Illness Cover –Pays a lump sum benefit if you diagnose illness or disease such as cancer, heart diseases, neurological diseases and permanently disable or unable to work.

You can also get sports cover under TPD. Events of total permanent disability due to sports injury may also be covered depending on the insurer’s policy

How to Structure Your TPD Insurance

Structuring the TPD policy is little complicated and depends on your needs and priorities. The following points should be considered for a TPD policy:

Own or Any occupation option: A TPD policy can either have Own or Any occupation option. The payment of insurance claim may majorly depend on satisfying these options. Therefore, it’s crucial to understand these two terms and their implications to structure the policy.

Definition of TPD: It widely varies from insurer to insure. You must understand the definition before taking any cover.

Linked Policy or Stand-Alone: You can also link the TPD with a Life insurance policy or take a stand-alone TPD. Both have pros and cons and may impact the premium.

There are other aspects of TPD insurance which are important to structure the policy. Our financial adviser can help you to understand and find a suitable TPD policy.

Who receives the TPD Cover Benefits

The idea of TPD cover is to protect you financially if you become permanently disabled. The benefit amount is for you to pay off personal debt, home loan or medical expenses. There are other types of personal insurances available to look after your day to day expenses.

How much will TPD Insurance cost

The cost of TPD insurance or premium depends on various factors such as age, gender, occupation, cover amount, health condition, etc. Your policy premium will also depend on how you want to structure it.
