TM Life Guard
TM Life Guard is a clean, no-frills 20-year term life plan from one of Legacy Income's own carriers.
★ The Insurer’s Play
analytical interpretationWhy this product exists
To lock in long-dated, predictable protection premiums — specifically, to capture whole-household budgets rather than single lives and comply with the POJK 36/2025 co-payment redesign for health cover.
What the insurer wants the agent to do
Steer the agent to bundle several family members onto one policy, attach and upsell supplementary riders, and explain the specific co-payment mechanism clearly.

⚠ Compliance red flags & mis-selling warnings
-
Never imply cash value or “money back.” TM Life Guard has no surrender value — the RIPLAY states the insurer pays nothing on surrender. Any suggestion of a return on a pure-protection term plan is a mis-selling breach of OJK conduct-of-business rules.
-
Present the illustration honestly, both scenarios. Show both the standard death benefit and the first- six-month “premiums-only” outcome. Disclosing only the favourable case is a material omission. Use the official illustration; do not invent figures.
-
Do not over-promise the accidental multiplier. The accidental-death uplift is capped at Rp2bn per policy and Rp3bn aggregate per insured across all TMLI accident cover, and is excluded for listed high-risk causes. State the cap and the exclusions, never the headline doubling alone.
-
Disclose exclusions before signing, not after. Suicide within 2 years, high-risk occupations (military, police, miners, non-commercial pilots), extreme sports, war/nuclear, and substance misuse are excluded. Walk the prospect through these; do not bury them.
-
Confirm 20-year premium affordability. Selling a 20-year commitment the client cannot sustain leads to lapse with zero value returned. Document that affordability was assessed — this is a suitability obligation.
-
State the eligibility walls accurately. Insured entry age is 18–55; TPD benefit runs 18–65. Do not pitch outside these bands or imply flexibility that does not exist.
-
Do NOT apply POJK 36/2025 co-payment language. The co-payment requirement is a HEALTH-insurance provision and does not apply to this term-life product. Do not introduce co-payment framing into TM Life Guard discussions.
Internal training guidance. Always confirm against the current RIPLAY/policy — the policy is the binding document.

How Traditional Life products differ
Fully benchmarked · 91% coverageNo product wins every dimension — these are trade-offs, not a scoreboard. Where the dataset can’t yet support hard medians, we show the observed range and the analyst’s read.
Category benchmarks for Traditional Life are still being built.
Coverage caveat: Catalog stubs for the 131-product traditional-life category are HTML-only ('not disclosed on page'); structured numeric data is reliably available only from the subset with fully extracted RIPLAY/brochure PDFs. Automated population-level extraction across the heterogeneous brief corpus yields <60% coverage on every quantifiable metric, so per SKILL Step 4 this category is benchmarked qualitatively. The anchor sample below (5 products with clean PDF data) defines the observed range; it is NOT a category-wide population statistic. (sample: ~69 products)
Expert · full Strategic Brief
1. The 60-Second Pitch
TM Life Guard is a clean, no-frills 20-year term life plan from one of Legacy Income’s own carriers. It does one job and does it transparently: pay a fixed premium for 20 years, and if the insured dies or becomes totally and permanently disabled, the family receives the full sum assured. No investment account, no unit link, no moving parts.
What sets it apart from a plain term plan is the built- in accident multiplier. Die from an accident and the policy pays the sum assured PLUS another 100% of the sum assured on top — effectively double cover for the risk that most often strikes a breadwinner in their working years. Total Permanent Disability cover is bundled in at no separate line item.
This is the product to arm an agent with when the prospect is a 30-to-50-year-old breadwinner who wants serious protection, hates the complexity of unit-link, and wants to know exactly what their money buys. It is pure protection — sell it as protection, never as savings. There is no cash value and nothing comes back if the policy is surrendered or simply runs its term.
Tokio Marine carries an 1879 Japanese heritage and an OJK licence; for an agent, that brand does real work in the living room.
2. Headline Numbers Decoded
Decode: the premium floor of Rp6jt/year on a Rp600jt sample SA means roughly 1% of cover per year — a strong protection-to-premium ratio that only a pure term plan can offer. The first-6-month “premiums-only” death payout is a standard anti-selection clause, not a catch; explain it plainly. The accidental multiplier is the headline economic feature — at the sample case it turns a Rp600jt plan into Rp1.2bn on an accidental death.
Insured entry age : 18–55 years
Policyholder age : 18+ (min)
Coverage runs to : up to age 75 (brochure framing) === THE CONTRACT ===
Product type : Term life, 20 yrs fixed
Premium term : 20 years (level/fixed)
Currency : Rupiah
Sum assured (SA) : min depends on min premium; NO stated maximum === WHAT IT COSTS ===
Min premium / year : Rp6,000,000 (annual)
Min premium / 6-mo : Rp3,000,000 (semi-annual)
Premium structure : level — same amount all 20 years, no step-ups === WHAT IT PAYS ===
Death (after mo. 6) : 100% of SA
Death (first 6 mo.) : 100% of premiums paid only
Accidental death : SA + extra 100% SA = up to 2x SA
Accidental DB cap : Rp2bn per policy; Rp3bn aggregate per insured across all TMLI accident cover
TPD benefit : 100% of SA (age 18–65), bundled in
Surrender value : NONE — insurer pays nothing === SAMPLE CASE (from docs) ===

Accidental-death payout : Rp1,200,000,000
3. Ideal Customer Profile
SWEET SPOT — lead with TM Life Guard
- Primary breadwinner aged 30–50 with dependants (spouse, school-age children, a mortgage).
- Someone who wants the largest honest death benefit per rupiah and is allergic to unit-link complexity.
- Budget-conscious families who can commit Rp6jt+/year for 20 years and want certainty, not a savings gimmick.
- Prospects with elevated accident exposure within ordinary life — heavy commuters, frequent road travellers, field-based workers (within accepted occupation classes).
- Clients who already hold a health/medical plan and now want to plug the pure-mortality gap.
BORDERLINE FIT — qualify hard first
- Age 51–55: still eligible, but a 20-year term pushes cover toward age 75 with level premium — confirm the premium is affordable for two decades.
- Clients who say they want “protection AND a return.” TM Life Guard has zero cash value; only sell if they genuinely accept pure protection after you explain it.
- Single income earners with no dependants — cover is valid but the need case is weaker; size SA carefully.
- High-risk occupations (military, police, miners, non- commercial pilots) — accident benefit is excluded for these unless declared and approved in writing.
DO NOT PITCH
- Anyone under 18 or over 55 (insured) at entry — hard eligibility wall.
- Clients whose core goal is wealth accumulation, education savings, or retirement funding — wrong tool; route them to a savings/endowment or unit-link plan.
- Buyers who will not sustain 20 years of premium and expect money back if they stop — surrender pays nothing; mis-set expectations here become complaints.
- Anyone you would need to imply a cash value to close.

5. Product Benchmarking — TM Life Guard vs the Traditional-Life Category
Benchmark limitation & confidence: This comparison is qualitative-comparative against a 5-product anchor sample representing under 60% of the traditional-life category. No like-for-like premium-rate tables exist for the peer set, so premium positioning is directional, not exact. Several anchors are whole-of-life and not strictly comparable to a 20-year term plan; treat the structural contrasts as framing, not scorecards. Confidence: Moderate.
Product form TM Life Guard : Term life, 20-yr fixed Category : Mixed — several anchors are whole-of-life (LegacyPro, Sun Heritage 100); TM is firmly term, an outlier on duration
Term / duration TM Life Guard : 20 years, single fixed option Category : Whole-of-life common; payment terms of 3/5/10/15/20 typical
Insured entry age TM Life Guard : 18–55 Category : Insured 30 days–65/70; PH 18 low to 80–90 upper
TPD / disability TM Life Guard : TPD bundled, 100% SA (18–65) Category : Often a rider or graded lien; TM's bundled TPD is a plus
Graded death benefit TM Life Guard : Yes — premiums-only in first 6 months; child age-graded table Category : Graduated death-benefit lien is common across the category === ECONOMIC DIMENSIONS ===
Min annual premium TM Life Guard : Rp6,000,000 Category : Best ~Rp3.6jt/yr, worst ~Rp7.2jt/yr
Sum assured floor TM Life Guard : Tied to min premium; no stated maximum Category : Floors Rp50jt–Rp200jt (Rp100jt typical)
Accidental death uplift TM Life Guard : +100% SA, cap Rp2bn/policy Category : Accident multipliers vary; an explicit doubler is a genuine differentiator
Surrender / cash value TM Life Guard : NONE Category : Whole-life anchors typically build some surrender value
TM Life Guard is the category's clean high-coverage term play: strong death- benefit-per-rupiah, a standout accidental doubler, bundled TPD, open-ended SA — at the cost of zero cash value and a single 20-year term with no flexibility.
Against whole-of-life anchors it wins on simplicity and accident economics; it loses to them on lifelong cover and cash value.
Sell it where the need is protection, not where the need is savings.
6. Field Talking Points (EN + ID)
Customer-facing script — use the EN / ID toggle (top-right) to switch language.
Opening
This is a straightforward protection plan from
Tokio Marine, a Japanese insurer that has been around
since 1879. You pay one fixed premium for 20 years, and
your family is protected if anything happens to you. No
investment account, no guessing what your money is
doing.
Ini produk proteksi yang sederhana dari Tokio
Marine, perusahaan asuransi Jepang yang sudah berdiri
sejak 1879. Bapak/Ibu bayar premi tetap selama 20 tahun,
dan keluarga terlindungi kalau terjadi sesuatu. Tidak
ada akun investasi, tidak perlu menebak ke mana uangnya.
Structural value prop
What makes this plan different from a plain term
plan is the accident protection. If death happens
because of an accident, the policy pays the full sum
assured plus another 100% on top — so a Rp600 million
plan pays Rp1.2 billion. And Total Permanent Disability
cover is already built in, not an add-on you pay extra
for.
Yang membedakan produk ini dari asuransi
berjangka biasa adalah perlindungan kecelakaannya. Kalau
meninggal karena kecelakaan, polis membayar uang
pertanggungan penuh ditambah 100% lagi — jadi plan
Rp600 juta membayar Rp1,2 miliar. Dan manfaat Cacat
Tetap Total sudah termasuk, bukan tambahan yang harus
dibayar terpisah.
The close
For about Rp6 million a year you lock in serious
protection for two decades, with the premium fixed —
never rising. The honest part: this is pure protection,
so there is no cash value and nothing comes back if you
stop. What you are buying is certainty for your family.
Shall I prepare an illustration for your sum assured?
Dengan sekitar Rp6 juta per tahun, Bapak/Ibu
mengunci perlindungan yang serius selama dua dekade,
dengan premi tetap — tidak akan naik. Jujurnya: ini
murni proteksi, jadi tidak ada nilai tunai dan tidak ada
yang kembali kalau berhenti. Yang Bapak/Ibu beli adalah
kepastian untuk keluarga. Mau saya siapkan ilustrasinya
sesuai uang pertanggungan yang diinginkan?

7. Top 5 Customer Objections + Handling
Customer-facing script — use the EN / ID toggle (top-right) to switch language.
Objection 1 — “If I don’t claim, I lose all my money.”
Customer (ID): "Kalau saya tidak pernah klaim, uang saya
hangus dong?"
Don’t say (EN): "Don’t worry, you’ll probably get
something back." — false; there is no cash value.
Don’t say (ID): "Tenang, nanti pasti ada yang kembali
kok." — keliru; produk ini tidak punya nilai tunai.
Do say (EN): You are right that this is pure protection
— there is no savings pot, so nothing comes back if you
outlive the term. What you are buying is 20 years of
certainty: if the worst happens, your family receives
the full sum assured. It is the same logic as paying for
peace of mind, priced as low as possible.
Do say (ID): Betul, ini murni proteksi — tidak ada
tabungan, jadi tidak ada yang kembali kalau Bapak/Ibu
sehat sampai akhir masa pertanggungan. Yang dibeli
adalah kepastian 20 tahun: kalau terjadi hal terburuk,
keluarga menerima uang pertanggungan penuh. Sama seperti
membayar ketenangan, dengan harga seekonomis mungkin.
Objection 2 — “Rp6 million a year is a lot.”
Customer (ID): “Rp6 juta setahun itu mahal.”
Don’t say (EN): “It’s cheap, everyone can afford it.” —
dismissive and untrue for some.
Don’t say (ID): “Murah kok, semua orang mampu.” —
meremehkan dan tidak selalu benar.
Do say (EN): Let’s look at what it buys: around Rp6
million a year secures Rp600 million of cover — and up
to Rp1.2 billion if death is accidental. That is roughly
1% a year for the full protection. The premium is also
fixed for all 20 years, so it never rises as you get
older.
Do say (ID): Mari kita lihat apa yang didapat: sekitar
Rp6 juta per tahun mengamankan Rp600 juta perlindungan —
dan sampai Rp1,2 miliar kalau meninggal karena
kecelakaan. Itu sekitar 1% per tahun untuk perlindungan
penuh. Premi juga tetap selama 20 tahun, jadi tidak naik
seiring usia bertambah.
Objection 3 — “Why only 20 years? What happens after?”
Customer (ID): "Kenapa cuma 20 tahun? Setelah itu
bagaimana?"
Don’t say (EN): “You can just renew, no problem.” — not
a guaranteed feature of this plan.
Don’t say (ID): "Nanti tinggal diperpanjang saja,
gampang." — bukan fitur yang dijamin di produk ini.
Do say (EN): This plan covers a fixed 20-year window —
designed to protect your family through the years they
depend on you most: while the children are growing and
the mortgage is being paid. We size the term to cover
exactly those high-responsibility years, which is when
the protection matters most.
Do say (ID): Produk ini melindungi selama 20 tahun —
dirancang untuk menjaga keluarga di tahun-tahun mereka
paling bergantung pada Bapak/Ibu: saat anak-anak
bertumbuh dan cicilan rumah masih berjalan. Kita
sesuaikan masa pertanggungan untuk menutup justru
tahun-tahun penuh tanggung jawab itu.
Objection 4 — “If I die in the first months, my family gets almost nothing?”
Customer (ID): "Kalau saya meninggal di bulan-bulan awal,
keluarga cuma dapat sedikit?"
Don’t say (EN): “That almost never happens, ignore it.”
— dismisses a real clause.
Don’t say (ID): "Itu hampir tidak pernah terjadi,
abaikan saja." — mengabaikan klausul yang nyata.
Do say (EN): In the first six months, death from illness
returns 100% of premiums paid — this is a standard
fairness clause every insurer uses to keep premiums low
for honest buyers. After six months, full sum assured
applies. And accidental death is covered at full benefit
from day one, not subject to that waiting window.
Do say (ID): Dalam enam bulan pertama, meninggal karena
sakit mengembalikan 100% premi yang sudah dibayar — ini
klausul kewajaran standar yang dipakai semua asuransi
agar premi tetap murah untuk nasabah yang jujur. Setelah
enam bulan, uang pertanggungan penuh berlaku. Dan
meninggal karena kecelakaan dijamin penuh sejak hari
pertama, tanpa masa tunggu itu.
Objection 5 — “I already have health insurance, why this too?”
Customer (ID): "Saya sudah punya asuransi kesehatan,
kenapa harus ini juga?"
Don’t say (EN): "Health insurance is useless without
this." — false and disrespects their existing cover.
Don’t say (ID): "Asuransi kesehatan tidak ada gunanya
tanpa ini." — keliru dan merendahkan proteksi yang sudah
dimiliki.
Do say (EN): Health insurance pays the hospital while you
are being treated — it is for getting you better. This
plan does a different job: it replaces your income for
your family if you are no longer there, or if total
permanent disability stops you working. The two cover
different risks; together they close the gap.
Do say (ID): Asuransi kesehatan membayar rumah sakit saat
Bapak/Ibu dirawat — fungsinya menyembuhkan. Produk ini
tugasnya beda: menggantikan penghasilan untuk keluarga
kalau Bapak/Ibu sudah tiada, atau kalau cacat tetap
total membuat tidak bisa bekerja. Keduanya melindungi
risiko yang berbeda; digabung, celahnya tertutup.

8. Compliance Red Flags & Mis-Selling Warnings
-
Never imply cash value or “money back.” TM Life Guard has no surrender value — the RIPLAY states the insurer pays nothing on surrender. Any suggestion of a return on a pure-protection term plan is a mis-selling breach of OJK conduct-of-business rules.
-
Present the illustration honestly, both scenarios. Show both the standard death benefit and the first- six-month “premiums-only” outcome. Disclosing only the favourable case is a material omission. Use the official illustration; do not invent figures.
-
Do not over-promise the accidental multiplier. The accidental-death uplift is capped at Rp2bn per policy and Rp3bn aggregate per insured across all TMLI accident cover, and is excluded for listed high-risk causes. State the cap and the exclusions, never the headline doubling alone.
-
Disclose exclusions before signing, not after. Suicide within 2 years, high-risk occupations (military, police, miners, non-commercial pilots), extreme sports, war/nuclear, and substance misuse are excluded. Walk the prospect through these; do not bury them.
-
Confirm 20-year premium affordability. Selling a 20-year commitment the client cannot sustain leads to lapse with zero value returned. Document that affordability was assessed — this is a suitability obligation.
-
State the eligibility walls accurately. Insured entry age is 18–55; TPD benefit runs 18–65. Do not pitch outside these bands or imply flexibility that does not exist.
-
Do NOT apply POJK 36/2025 co-payment language. The co-payment requirement is a HEALTH-insurance provision and does not apply to this term-life product. Do not introduce co-payment framing into TM Life Guard discussions.

10. Action Items for Legacy Income (next 30 days)
-
Build a one-page agent leave-behind in EN + ID built around the accidental doubler and bundled TPD — the two features that distinguish TM Life Guard from a plain term plan. Ship by end of week 2.
-
Run a “pure protection vs unit-link” objection drill at the next agent training. The #1 stall is “I get nothing back.” Rehearse the Section 7 handling until every agent can deliver it without hesitating.
-
Pull the official premium-rate / illustration tool for TM Life Guard and confirm rates by age band beyond the single Rp6.09jt sample case, so agents can quote accurately across the 18–55 entry range.
-
Define the target list: identify breadwinner prospects aged 30–50 in the existing book who hold health cover but no life cover — this is the cleanest cross-sell wedge for TM Life Guard.
-
Compliance pre-check: circulate the Section 8 red flags to all deploying agents and require sign-off that they will (a) never imply cash value, (b) show both illustration scenarios, and © disclose the accident cap and exclusions before signing.
