Example 1<br />

Steve Tan is a 50-year-old, non-smoking marketing manager who is married with 2 children. To<br />

be able to maintain a comfortable <strong>life</strong>style after his retirement, Steve takes up <strong>AIA</strong> <strong>Retire</strong>ment<br />

Saver (II) to give himself a retirement income of S$2,000 per month to complement his CPF LIFE<br />

payouts of approximately S$1,000 # .<br />

As Steve wants to complete his premium payments while he is still <strong>work</strong>ing, he chooses the<br />

10-year premium payment option. Taking into consideration the increasing <strong>life</strong> expectancy in<br />

<strong>Singapore</strong>, Steve decides it’s best to have a retirement income till he is 85 years old. So he<br />

chooses to receive the retirement income over 20 years.<br />

At 65 years old, Steve will receive a guaranteed retirement reward of S$48,000, to celebrate<br />

the start of his retirement, and a guaranteed S$2,000 retirement income per month. Every<br />

year, starting <strong>from</strong> the end of the first policy year, Steve can also potentially receive an annual<br />

dividend 5 <strong>from</strong> <strong>AIA</strong> <strong>Retire</strong>ment Saver (II) that he can choose to accumulate with <strong>AIA</strong> at the<br />

prevailing interest rate.<br />

Example 2<br />

Victor Woo, is a 35-year-old, non-smoking engineer who is married and just had his first child.<br />

He wishes to receive an income payout of S$2,500 for 15 years after he retires. Thus, he takes up<br />

<strong>AIA</strong> <strong>Retire</strong>ment Saver (II) and chooses to pay his premiums till age 65. By starting a retirement<br />

plan early, he enjoys more affordable premiums as they are now spread out over 30 years, which<br />

he hopes to complete before he retires.<br />

At 65 years old, Victor will receive a guaranteed retirement reward of S$60,000 to celebrate the<br />

beginning of a new chapter of his <strong>life</strong>, and a guaranteed monthly income of S$2,500 till he is<br />

80 years old.<br />

Every year, starting <strong>from</strong> the end of the first policy year, Victor can also potentially receive an<br />

annual dividend 5 <strong>from</strong> <strong>AIA</strong> <strong>Retire</strong>ment Saver (II) that he chooses to withdraw every year to<br />

enhance his retirement income stream.<br />
