Critical Illness cover increases at each policy anniversary with corresponding reduction in Life Cover.

At the beginning of the cover, Life Cover SA is set at 80% of Basic Sum Assured and CI SA is set at 20% of Basic Sum Assured. For an in-force policy, at every policy anniversary, starting from the first policy anniversary, CI SA will increase every year and Life Cover SA will decrease by the same amount.

30%  X Basic Sum Assured ÷ Policy Term.
