These insurance benefits have been very helpful to us, especially in maintaining the familyโ€™s financial stability, so we did not need to use savings or other budget allocations.

Susanti said families who lose a breadwinner need certainty, speed and adequate benefits to keep their financial plans on track. MSIG Life reported a risk-based capital ratio of 1,382 percent, well above the Financial Services Authorityโ€™s minimum requirement of 120 percent.

I greatly appreciate the responsive and straightforward claims process.

· Ho Gek BieHo praised the handling of the claim.

One beneficiary, Ho Gek Bie, received Rp1.27 billion from two policies held by the late Marilyn Wijaya, who had been an MSIG Life customer since May 2023. Ho said the payment helped preserve the familyโ€™s financial stability without using savings or other budget allocations. MSIG Life also promoted its Smile Wealth Protection product, which continues premium payments if the insured dies during the premium-paying period and provides additional benefits under the policy terms.

We are committed to paying every valid claim in accordance with the policy terms and to strengthening our position as a trusted partner supporting Indonesian families toward the future with greater confidence.
