Pros and cons
Pros
- A single insurer for auto, home and renters cover, so one provider holds the lot
- Travel claims run through mobile app, online and phone, so you can pick how to report
- Support reaches you on phone, email and help centre
- It is an insurer, not a broker passing the risk on
Cons
- Its auto, home and renters spread means one company carries every risk you hold with it
- Support runs on phone, email and help centre only, with no branch network listed
- The expats health plans cap entry at 18 to 65, which closes the door outside that band
Who it suits
- People in SG who want personal cover from one insurer
- Households that hold auto, home and renters cover across more than one category
- Expat buyers looking for health cover that starts at 18 to 65
Who should look elsewhere
- Linxea, if you only need life cover and want a narrower range
- Oney Préstamos ES, if you want health, life and gadget options including gadget cover
- Euroasia Insurance, if you are after auto, home and travel rather than an international health focus
The company behind it
FWD SG is the trading name of FWD Singapore Pte. Ltd., an insurer that carries risk itself rather than brokering it to another underwriter. It is based in Singapore and has operated since 2016, which puts it among the newer names in the local market. Getting hold of it runs through phone, email and help centre, and the legal entity name on your documents is the one to quote when you call.

Frequently asked questions
What kinds of cover can I get from FWD SG?+
The range spans auto, home and renters. That means motor, home and renters cover sit alongside life, critical illness, health, dental and travel policies, plus motorcycle and home emergency add-ons. You can hold more than one policy with the same provider.
How high can travel cover go?+
Travel cover can reach S$1,000,000, which is the ceiling listed for the policy. The exact limit depends on the plan you pick, so the higher tiers carry the bigger number. It is the strongest single figure attached to the travel range.
How do I make a travel claim?+
Claims can go in through mobile app, online and phone. A mobile app, an online form and a phone line are all available, so you can report from the road or from home. Pick whichever suits the moment, since the channel is a choice rather than a restriction.
Who is FWD SG aimed at?+
The health plans target expats, with entry ages set at 18 to 65. Anyone outside that age band is not covered by those plans. Other lines, such as travel, home and motor, are not tied to that audience.
Is FWD SG an insurer or a broker?+
It is an insurer, so the company underwrites the policies itself rather than handing the risk to another carrier. That matters when a claim arrives, since you deal with the entity named on your document. The registered company is FWD Singapore Pte. Ltd..
Who can I contact for help?+
Contact runs through phone, email and help centre. Both a direct line and email are available, plus a help centre for written questions. The company sits in Singapore, so local hours apply when you call.
How long has FWD SG been trading?+
It has been operating since 2016, making it a relatively young name in the SG market. Newer does not mean untested, but it does mean a shorter record of handling claims through a full cycle.
