Question

Accepted Answer

The SNTC Trust account allows caregivers to determine a future care plan for their children with special needs, and set aside the finances needed to accomplish the care plan.

With the matching top-up, caregivers will be able to use the monies in the SNTC account to purchase affordable term insurance with a sum assured of at least $100,000. Upon the caregivers’ demise, the sum assured will be used to top up their beneficiary’s trust account to provide for his/her long term care, in accordance with the care plan.
