The new takaful retirement savings plan offers a steady stream of income after retirement and the assurance of long-term protection.
KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 8 (Bernama) — FWD Takaful and HSBC Amanah announced the launch of Takaful Future Income, an innovative Long-Term Takaful Family Savings plan which comes with an innovative new solution aimed at supporting Malaysians towards a more secure retirement and peace of mind in their golden years. The launch of this innovative product comes at an inflection point as Malaysia’s demographic shifts towards becoming an aged nation. According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), Malaysia is moving rapidly towards an aged society at an accelerated pace. In 2024, 11.6% of Malaysians were aged 60 and above, and it projects an increase to 17.3% by 2040 and 23.4% by 2050, highlighting an urgent need for retirement readiness. Naturally, a progression towards an aged nation raises many concerns, with financial worries being front-of-mind for many Malaysians. Recent findings indicate 66% of Malaysians may need to delay retirement due to current financial responsibilities, with inflation (83%) and rising healthcare costs (83%). Heeding these concerns, FWD Takaful and HSBC Amanah’s innovative new solution is designed to support and assist Malaysians in planning confidently for the long-term through shariah-compliant retirement income and protection. “Malaysians are living longer, and they deserve solutions that are simple, accessible, and dependable. With households facing rising economic challenges, assurance in their golden years become an essential pillar of financial wellbeing. As a takaful operator, we conceptualised Takaful Future Income to support Malaysians through a steady stream of retirement income as well as strong protection for their loved ones —so they can retire with peace of mind and celebrate living.” Aman Chowla, Country CEO, FWD Malaysia. “As our HSBC Premier customers enjoy longer and more fulfilling lives, they increasingly seek solutions that help sustain the quality of life they value today. Takaful Future Income is thoughtfully designed to meet this need, offering a Shariah-compliant solution with triple protection and rewards for long-term commitment, empowering them to preserve their desired lifestyle well into their golden years,” said Linda Yip, Country Head of International Wealth and Premier Banking, HSBC Bank Malaysia.
