Critical Illness insurance pays a lump sum upon diagnosis of a critical illness, and is primarily meant for replacement of income and medical expenses not covered by MediShield Life and/or your Integrated Shield Plan.
Disability Income insurance provides a monthly cash payment to partially replace your income, after a deferment period and only insofar as your disability is maintained.

The MoneyOwl Insurance Philosophy prioritises minimising costs (premiums in terms of outlay now, not cash to be returned in future) while maximising benefits (coverage and sum assured). We stress the importance of achieving a reasonable and justifiable balance between these factors, and prioritise Core Life Coverage.
