MetLife Feng Ying Nian Nian Insurance Plan

Insurance is a risk treatment option which involves risk sharing from an economic perspective and a contractual agreement that one party will be compensated for loss under the terms of the insurance contract. Socially speaking, insurance is an important composition of the socio-economic security system. From a risk management perspective, insurance helps mitigate risk.

Insurance comes after risk. Everything you do in life involves some sort of risk. Every day you take potential risks on your life or health by crossing roads, walking past construction sites or breathing polluted air. The possibilities for risk are endless so it's wise to have insurance as a tool to transfer the risks and to provide protection for your family. 

Life Insurance (in a general sense) includes Life Insurance, Critical Illness Insurance, Medical Insurance, Annuity and Endowment Insurance. In addition to the protection coverage available to you and your family upon the occurrence of unexpected accidents, Life Insurance (in a general sense) can also offer plans for the future of you and your family.

• Life Insurance Products provide dependable and solid protection for you and your family.
• Critical Illness Insurance products offer coverage for medical expenses and protection when you suffer from critical illness.
• Medical Insurance products provide reimbursement for medical expenses incurred during medical treatment and some allowance (if applicable).
• Annuity and Endowment Insurance products act as a relatively stable and guaranteed income under the terms of insurance contract.

If you purchase the participating insurance, the policy’s dividend will be determined according to the insurance company’s business performance. The insurance company will only distribute part of its profit to you when its business performance is better than the respective pricing assumptions. The insurance company does not have to distribute a dividend to you if its business performance is worse than the pricing assumptions. The future interest prediction of an insurance contract that is included in the product specification or in the insurance benefits illustration letter is an estimation based on the company’s actuarial assumption, and cannot be deemed as an expectation for future returns. And the dividend distribution is uncertain and thus not guaranteed.
