Risk Disclosure Statement:
a. | Exchange rate and currency risk disclosure: you will be exposed to exchange rate risk if you pay your premiums in a foreign currency. The exchange rate may fluctuate from time to time due to various factors, possibly leading to financial losses on your part. The changes in the exchange rate could result in the subsequent premiums payable (if any) being higher than the initial premium. You should consider the exchange rate risk before deciding on the currency for premium payment. | |
b. | The Policy Owner shall pay the premium on time during the premium term. Failure to pay the required amount by the end of the grace period (if applicable) designated by LFH Life may result in lapse or termination of the policy. Nevertheless, it is subject to the automatic premium loan (if applicable) (LFH Life will advance the premium due from the non-forfeiture value as an automatic premium loan) and non-forfeiture provisions (if applicable). If the policy is terminated or lapsed due to non-payment of the premium, the Policy Owner may receive a surrender value less than the total premiums paid and lose the insurance protection provided by the policy. | |
c. | LFH Life will terminate the policy before the maturity date if any one of the following events occur: | |
(i) | The insured passes away; | |
(ii) | LFH Life approves the Policy Owner’s written request for surrender; | |
(iii) | The policy lapses after the end of the grace period; | |
(iv) | The non-forfeiture value is zero (if applicable); | |
(v) | The total amount of the benefits LFH Life has paid or is going to pay has reached the maximum benefit limit for all coverages under the policy (if applicable) | |
d. | The actual inflation rate may exceed expectations; therefore, the real value of the amount you receive may be lower. |
Incontestability
The incontestability clause applies only to the Death Benefit under the policy. Except for non-payment of premiums or fraud, the validity of the policy shall become incontestable after it has been in force for two (2) years during the insured’s lifetime, starting from the policy issue date or the policy reinstatement date, whichever is later. To prevent misunderstanding, LFH Life reserves the right to void the entire policy according to the provisions related to fraud, misrepresentation or non-disclosure of material facts, or as otherwise permitted by the law, without being constrained by the incontestability clause. |
Misstatement of Age and/or Gender
This policy is issued based on the age, gender or other factual details of the insured as specified in the policy schedule. Subject to LFH Life’s rights in the case of fraud, if the age, gender or other factual details of the insured have been misstated, the payable premiums and all benefits provided by this policy will be recalculated based on the premiums paid and the benefits entitled according to the correct age, gender and other factual details of the insured. If there is an overpayment of any premium resulting from the insured overstating their age or misstating their gender, LFH Life will refund the excess portion accordingly. LFH Life may exercise the absolute discretion to terminate the policy upon discovering the insured’s correct age, gender and/or other factual details that would have rendered them ineligible for the policy, and is solely liable for a refund of the paid premiums (without interest). |
Fraud, Misrepresentation or Non-disclosure of Material Facts
The Policy Owner shall provide statements and answers that are completely truthful and accurate to the best of their knowledge and belief. In case of any fraud, misrepresentation, or non-disclosure of any material fact in the insurance application (if any) or the declaration upon which this policy is based, concerning any other matter affecting this policy or LFH Life’s risk, or in connection with the making of any claim under this policy, LFH Life has complete and absolute discretion to void this policy, and all claims hereunder shall be forfeited. Any premium(s) paid by the Policy Owner in these circumstances, except for cases involving fraud, will be refundable. |
Cooling-off Period
The Policy Owner has the right, by providing written notice, to request the cancellation of the policy and a refund of any premium(s) paid (the premium(s) will be refunded in the currency of the policy or MOP/HKD based on the exchange rate provided on the day of the refund. To the extent permitted by law, LFH Life may deduct from the premium(s) to be refunded any fees directly incurred from underwriting, including but not limited to the fees for medical examinations and investigations). The Policy Owner shall sign the notice and ensure its direct receipt by LFH Life’s principal office at Alameda Dr. Carlos D'Assumpcao, No. 398, Edificio CNAC, 4º Andar, Macau within the cooling-off period, which is 21 calendar days from the delivery of the policy to the Policy Owner or their representative. |
Policy Surrender
As long as no claims have been approved for any major illness, and the policy has a guaranteed cash value (if applicable) after the cooling-off period, the Policy Owner may, while the policy is in force, request the insurer to surrender the policy and receive the cash value (if any). Their right to a surrender request remains applicable after policy renewal at the end of the first (and the subsequent) contract terms. LFH Life reserves the right to postpone the payment of the surrender value (if any) for no more than six (6) months from the surrender date. The Policy Owner shall file the surrender request using the form designated by LFH Life and submit it to LFH Life’s office in Macao. Upon surrender and payment of the surrender value, the policy shall be terminated, and LFH Life shall have no further liability under this policy. |
Premium Adjustment
The payable premium of the plan at the time of application and renewal is calculated based on, but not limited to, the following factors (if applicable): the sum insured, gender, entry age, smoking habit, premium payment term, underwriting class, risk type and residency, and is not guaranteed. LFH Life reserves the right to review and adjust the premium payable at any time, with factors leading to potential adjustments including, but not limited to, the discrepancies between experience and current expectations. |
