Manulife SmartRetire (V) gives you flexibility to customise your goals

Manulife SmartRetire (V) allows policy holders to create a retirement tailored to their needs.

A recent DBS-Manulife Future Ready Survey has revealed that more than half of (59 percent) pre-retirees – aged 35 to 65 years old – define a well-lived life as being ‘content and comfortable’.

The survey also showed that while 73 percent of respondents prioritise making provisions for retirement as their biggest life goal, just over half (53 percent) feel they’ve achieved this. One in six said that they don’t have anyone to rely on for their retirement security.

The pandemic has forced many of us to re-examine our finances, including our retirement plans. As busy Singaporeans prioritise making provisions for retirement, we wanted to offer a product that is easy to set up and flexible enough to cater for future adjustments. Manulife SmartRetire (V) is designed with this in mind, and we hope to support customers to build a comfortable retirement plan according to their lifestyle needs so they can retire with peace of mind.
