What are Endowment Plans?

Endowment plans are life insurance saving plans offered by insurance companies.

The aim is to help policyholders save towards specific financial goals. Policy holders can contribute a regular amount for a designated period of time or pay a lump sum upfront at the start of the policy.

Upon maturity of the policy, you will be given a lump sum payout with the guaranteed return. It is best to study the plan carefully as certain endowment plans offers non-guaranteed returns.

Why Gro Capital Ease?

The minimum single premium for online purchase starts at $10,000 which is payable via PayNow QR, eGIRO (DBS/POSB) or Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS) funds.
