Part of the premium of life insurance plans pays for the insurance and related costs. You should note the long-term nature of the plans. If you surrender the policy before the end of the term, the amount to be received by you may be less than the total paid premiums, and thus resulting in a pecuniary loss. The policyholder is subject to the credit risks of the insurance company.

Bonds are subject to the risk of the issuer defaulting on its obligations, customers may not be able to receive back the principal and interest. Credit ratings assigned by credit rating agencies do not guarantee the creditworthiness of the issuer. Bonds are more susceptible to fluctuations in interest rates and generally prices of bonds will fall when interest rates rise. Bonds may not have active secondary markets and it would be difficult or impossible for investors to sell the bond before its maturity. Even you can sell your bonds before maturity, you may receive an amount lower than the original investment amount. If you invest in foreign currency bonds, customers may incur loss if they convert to local currency where there is devaluation in foreign currency. If a bond is early redeemed and you reinvest the funds in similar bonds, your return may be substantially reduced.
