2017 has turned out to be a robust year for policyholders of traditional participating (par) policies. But they are likely to have to brace themselves for a more modest performance this year.
Wen Research's latest compilation of the net investment returns of Singapore insurers' life funds finds a one-year average return of 9.55 per cent. The 12-year average return (2006-2017) is 4.65 per cent.
