TYB Pukwana ya Kganya Contract Summary & Disclosures

Information for Existing Members who were members of the Trust before 1 January 2023 ("Effective Date")** Existing Members are all Members of the Trust who were, as part of the Membership to the Trust, previously covered as assured lives in terms of group policies between the Trust and SDM for burial benefits, personal accident benefits and dread disease benefits (" the Previous Group Policies"). Due to a change in the insurance laws, the Trust had to change the Membership rights of the Members as provided for in the trust deed of the Trust, read with the regulations issued in terms of the trust deed of the Trust. One of the changes required that the Previous Group Policies be terminated and replaced with individual insurance policies for the Members as Policyholders. Accordingly, the Trust procured access to the Contract for all Church Officials who are Members who satisfy the requirements for Membership to the Trust, whereby the Members, previously covered as assured lives under the Previous Group Policies, become Policyholders with rights against SDM as set out in the Contract.
