The plan features three variants: Wealth for long-term creation, Wealth Plus featuring a Premium Funding Benefit, and Wealth Forever offering whole-life cover for legacy planning. Under Wealth Plus, if the life assured passes away, future premiums are funded by the insurer to keep the policy active until maturity.
