Why is it important to nominate a beneficiary?

It is important to ensure that your loved ones will receive the benefit as intended by you and that the monies payable under the certificate (and related campaign, if any) can be paid out by PAMB without any delay. Without a nomination, the contract benefits will be paid out to the EPF member's lawful executor or administrator to distribute it in accordance to the applicable laws of distribution. The process will take a while.

It is important for you to inform the beneficiary about the insurance benefits and nomination.

Who can I nominate as the beneficiary for my own certificate?

a) The nominee has to be an individual. Nomination of an organization is not allowed.

b) If the nominee is below the age of 18 (eighteen) at the point of claim, the benefits will be paid to the surviving parent or a proper claimant i.e. legal guardian, subject to the relevant legal evidence/supporting documents.

Note: For dependants’ certificates, the EPF member (Certificate Holder) will be the default beneficiary. The dependants may change their beneficiary once they become the Certificate Holder for their own certificate.

How can I nominate a beneficiary for my own certificate?

You can nominate a Beneficiary by filling in and submitting the Nomination of Beneficiary form via PRUServices Web after sign-up.
