Chubb Life Hong Kong Enhances Flagship MyLegacy V Insurance Plan with Shorter Breakeven Period
- Published in News from Asia
- New 3-year premium payment term delivers 6-year guaranteed breakeven, one of the shortest in Hong Kong
- Advanced payout and succession structures mirror the control of a private trust, meeting bespoke wealth planning needs for affluent clients with diverse financial goals.
A recent report by Hong Kong Institute for Monetary and Financial Research found that 40% of pre-retirees in Hong Kong identify market volatility as a major threat to their savings. Chubb MyLegacy V addresses this concern by offering a holistic solution that balances liquidity needs with long-term, multi-generational wealth transfer.
The Plan offers two distinct options catering to varied financial goals:
- Chubb MyLegacy V – Harvest (Payment terms: 3 / 5 years): Optimized for capital efficiency and liquidity, driving potential wealth accumulation over short to medium terms with a faster guaranteed breakeven.
- Chubb MyLegacy V –Blossom (Payment terms: 2 / 5 / 8 / 12 years): Ideal for mid-to-long-term saving goals, offering flexible withdrawals and payouts to facilitate seamless legacy planning across generations.
Chubb MyLegacy V also offers a flexible and economical alternative to traditional family trusts, making legacy planning accessible without a high asset threshold. Customers benefit from dynamic succession planning, multiple successor options, policy continuation for beneficiaries, support for minor successor owners, and the ability to designate charitable organizations as beneficiaries.
Other key benefits include:
- Market-leading capital recovery: The new 3-pay option in Chubb MyLegacy V – Harvest achieves full guaranteed breakeven within six years.
- Flexible liquidity: Clients can access their policy's value through cash withdrawals and annuity, supporting both planned and unexpected needs throughout their wealth journey.
Belinda Au, President of Chubb Life Hong Kong and Head of North Asia, said, "Chubb MyLegacy Insurance Plan V is built around what matters most to our customers – flexibility, security, and the ability to grow and protect their wealth for future generations. The new 3-pay option offers one of the fastest guaranteed breakeven periods in Hong Kong, giving customers a clear advantage in achieving their financial goals. This enhancement further strengthens Chubb MyLegacy V as a leading savings insurance solution, making wealth planning simpler and more achievable. We are proud to support our customers as they build a lasting legacy with confidence."
