FlexiAchiever Savings Plan‘s key features include:
Achieve stable wealth growth in the long term with potential bonus
- First-in-market[1] Special Bonus: To support customers in long-term wealth accumulation, starting from the end of the 11th policy year, customers who have not exercised the Bonus Lock-in Option, Value Safeguard Option and Mental Incapacity Option[6], and have not made any payments nor withdrawn any policy value including partial surrenders will be eligible to receive an additional non-guaranteed Special Bonus.
Liquidity on-demand: timing, amount and frequency
- Rare-in-market[2] Value Safeguard Option: Starting from the end of the 6th policy year, customers can withdraw and transfer certain amounts of policy values to the Value Safeguard Account. This enables flexible withdrawals and the opportunity to earn interest at a non-guaranteed rate.
- Bonus Lock-in Option and First-in-market[7] Bonus Unlock Option
- Bonus Lock-in Option: Allows customers to unlock potential returns by earning interest at a non-guaranteed rate. This is achieved by transferring a certain percentage of the latest cash value of the non-guaranteed Reversionary Bonus and non-guaranteed Terminal Bonus to the Bonus Lock-in Account.
- Bonus Unlock Option: To meet customers’ financial needs, a certain percentage of the latest value of the Bonus Lock-in Account can be reallocated as non-guaranteed Reversionary Bonus and Terminal Bonus, facilitating wealth accumulation and returns.
Dynamic options to pass on wealth to future generations
- First-in-market[3] Beneficiary Flexi Option: When the beneficiary reaches the designated age chosen by the policyowner or when he/she is diagnosed with a specified illness[8], he/she can choose the desired Death Benefit Settlement Option.
- New Terminal Illness Benefit[9]: To alleviate the financial burden of medical expenses on the insured, in the unfortunate event that the insured is diagnosed with a terminal illness and is expected to pass away within 12 months due to the terminal illness, a one-off advance payment of the death benefit will be paid.

Starting from the end of the 6th policy year, customers may apply to withdraw certain amount of policy values (which may include the latest cash value of any non-guaranteed Reversionary Bonus, and part of the guaranteed cash value and the corresponding cash value of any non-guaranteed Terminal Bonus) and transfer the amount into a Value Safeguard Account to earn non-guaranteed interest. Withdrawal of policy values may trigger partial surrender, whereas part or all of the amount in a Value Safeguard Account can be withdrawn at any time without surrendering the policy. |
|
[3] First-in-market refers to the Beneficiary Flexi Option’s feature where the policyowner allows the beneficiary to choose to receive the death benefit payment in accordance with the beneficiary’s selected settlement option when the beneficiary has reached the designated age chosen by the policyowner or when the beneficiary is diagnosed with a specified illness. This feature is first-in-market when compared with the savings insurance products provided by major insurance companies in Hong Kong, as of 9 December 2024. |

|
[7] Bonus Unlock Option was first introduced by AIA in the Global Power Multi-Currency Plan 2 on 5 October 2022. Starting from one year after exercising the Bonus Lock-in option, the policyholder can apply to exercise the Bonus Unlock Option once per policy year within 30 days after the end of each policy year. |
|
[8] The Beneficiary Flexi Option will enable each beneficiary to choose the settlement option for his/her share of the unpaid balance of the death benefit and accidental death benefit (if any) according to his/her needs, upon the earlier of when the beneficiary attains the designated age chosen by the policyholder (“Designated Age”) or when the beneficiary is diagnosed with a specified illness, including cancer, stroke, heart attack, terminal illness and kidney failure (“Specified Illness”). |

[#] If part of the guaranteed cash value and the corresponding cash value of any Terminal Bonus have been transferred to the Value Safeguard Account, the principal amount of the policy will be reduced. The subsequent guaranteed cash value, face value and cash value of Terminal Bonus (if any), and the total premiums paid for the basic plan (as used in the calculation of the death benefit) will all be reduced based on the reduced principal amount. After such transfer, any Reversionary Bonus and any Terminal Bonus which the Company may declare subsequently and in the future will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, such transfer will in turn reduce the death benefit, the surrender benefit and the future value of the policy. If part or all of the cash value of any Reversionary Bonus has been transferred to the Value Safeguard Account, the face value of Reversionary Bonus will be reduced correspondingly, and any Reversionary Bonus which the Company may declare subsequently and in the future will be reduced accordingly, therefore reducing the future value of the policy. |
