If my policy is under Payor status, will there be any change to my premium?

For Investment-Linked Policy: For policies under Payor status, there will be no change to the policy premium. Only the insurance charges are revised. However, with the increased insurance charges, your annualised premium covered (in whole or in part) by Prudential may not be sufficient to support the additional insurance charges in the later years. Therefore, you are encouraged to do a regular (PRUSaver) top-up based on the amount recommended in the Revision Notification Letter to support the additional insurance charges. We advise you to refer to your Prudential Wealth Planner or Bank Representative for more information.
