Prudential enables online nominations through Sign with Singpass

The online service employs Sign with Singpass to generate Secure Electronic Signatures.

Prudential Singapore introduces online beneficiary nomination (online NOB) for its policyholders, making it the first insurer in the country to offer this service. 

Starting from 15 March, nominations will be done utilising Sign with Singpass, eliminating the need for physical submission of forms. Policyholders can now conveniently submit their nomination forms and electronic signatures online.

Beneficiary nomination is vital to ensure that policy benefits reach intended recipients as per the policyholder's wishes.

Although not mandatory, making a nomination reduces delays and potential conflicts in payouts.

The online NOB service employs Sign with Singpass to generate Secure Electronic Signatures (SES), ensuring document authenticity and integrity. 

Developed by the Government Technology Agency (GovTech) Singapore, Sign with Singpass enhances security and verification.

This initiative follows amendments to the Insurance (Nomination of Beneficiaries) Regulations 2009 by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) in July 2023, allowing insurers to offer online nomination services from 2 January.

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.
