NTUC Income amps up travel insurance offering

It will grant COVID-19 coverage for overseas travel.

NTUC Income is boosting its travel insurance offering in conjunction with the gradual lifting of the country’s border restrictions, a statement read.

The insurer will grant travellers covered by its single trip travel insurance for 90 days for COVID-related hospitalisation expenses of up to $134,000 whilst overseas, as well as costs incurred for medical evacuation or repatriation of up to the same amount if necessary.

These benefits are automatically included in single trip plans purchased from 26 November, including plans that cover for pre-existing conditions, and for travel dates starting from the same date.

However, these benefits will be excluded from travel insurance for trips to countries that the World Health Organisation deems as high-risk for COVID-19 at the point of purchase.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
