Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI) is a class of broadly standardised products offering term insurance or whole life insurance, and which include Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) coverage. DPI also provides Critical Illness (CI) coverage if you opt for it.

DPI is identified by the prefix “DIRECT” in the product name.

You can buy DPI from the customer service centre, or website if available, of life insurance companies. DPI is sold without financial advice.
