2. What happens if I encounter unexpected medical expenses after my policy goes into effect?  

Some may worry that applying for the HKMC Annuity Plan could result in a loss of financial flexibility, particularly as the possibility of encountering unexpected medical expenses may increase with age. Therefore, the HKMC Annuity Plan offers special withdrawal arrangement for medical and dental expenses4 to give you the financial flexibility and peace of mind.

3. Many annuity products on the market promise "high return", aren't they better options?

While some annuity products claim to offer attractive returns, their annuity payments may be divided into "guaranteed" and "non-guaranteed" portions. "Non-guaranteed" payments can be affected by various factors, such as investment returns, profits, and claims statistics of insurance companies. This means that if the payment is "non-guaranteed", your annuity income may be higher or lower than your expectations. In addition, if the "non-guaranteed" payments fail to be paid, your overall retirement income could be significantly affected. Therefore, when applying for an annuity product, it's important to be aware of the amounts of the guaranteed and non-guaranteed portions, especially for annuity products that claim to offer "high returns".

The HKMC Annuity Plan is not designed to deliver high returns. Instead, it offers a lifelong monthly annuity income that remains unchanged for life2. Many senior citizens desire a stable retirement life, and having a guaranteed income helps them plan a monthly budget effectively. Additionally, many insurance products only offer annuity payments for a duration of 10 or 20 years. In contrast, the HKMC Annuity Plan offers lifelong annuity payments.  

Therefore, it's important to thoroughly understand your own needs when comparing different annuity products.
