Now we can all get Honest and Instant Insurance Advice

The traditional mode of how insurance is sold is a frustrating process for most people. Consumers do not know where to start when it comes to getting insured. In many cases, there is a sales-pitch and high pressure selling from advisers who have a conflict of interest.

To address these needs, Do It Your-way Insurance (DIYInsurance) was launched in 2014 to empower people to make informed decisions about their own insurance purchase and they started Singapore’s 1st Life Insurance Comparison Web Portal for users to compare insurance products and provide greater transparency. To-date, more than 150,000 users have used DIYInsurance.

Consumers find it difficult to know where to start when it comes to getting insured. To help consumers obtain an assessment of their life insurance needs, they have recently launched Selfcheck, Singapore’s 1st digital adviser to bring insurance planning to the next high level.

This is like having an insurance adviser help you with your insurance check-up and providing instant advice, but without you feeling the obligation to buy anything.

It is critical is that there is a trusted DIYInsurance adviser and a client service team whom you can always go to. DIYInsurance is not just High-Tech, they are High-Touch.

Lower Cost

With Selfcheck, the insurance process is made more efficient and hence they are providing greater cost savings to their clients by increasing their commission rebates from 30% to 50%.

DIYInsurance rebates 50% of the salesperson’s commissions to their clients and retain the remainder of the commissions as their service fees. These rebates to their clients are on top of ongoing policy promotions offered by the insurers and they rebate the commissions for as long as the insurer pays them on a policy which could be over a period of 3-6 years.

Expertise

Started by Providend Ltd, a licensed financial adviser and registered fund management company with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) since 2003, the key leaders of DIYInsurance are Chief Executive of Providend Ltd Christopher Tan, MBA, CFP® and Head of DIYInsurance, Eddy Cheong, CFP® whom each have almost 2 decades of experience in the wealth management industry.
