Definitions<br />

This section defines some of the words and phrases we use in the terms and<br />

conditions.<br />

Certain words and phrases used in these terms and conditions have specific meanings,<br />

which might be different from the meaning they would have in general use. These<br />

words are shown in bold and listed below together with an explanation of their<br />

meanings in relation to this policy.<br />

Accumulated fund - the policy’s value at a point in time. We work this out as:<br />

the number of units allocated to the policy<br />

multiplied by<br />

the bid price of the units of the funds.<br />

We may use a market value adjuster with any part of the accumulated fund that is<br />

invested in the Secured <strong>Per<strong>for</strong>mance</strong> Fund or the Exempt Guaranteed Fund (see<br />

paragraphs 4.5 and 4.6).<br />

Annuity - a guaranteed payment made every month, <strong>for</strong> the month, until death.<br />

Application <strong>for</strong>m - the application <strong>for</strong>m <strong>for</strong> this policy. It includes any extra<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation given to us about the policy or any other relevant in<strong>for</strong>mation.<br />

Approval - approval from the Revenue Commissioners.<br />

Approved Minimum Retirement Fund – a fund which is managed by a Qualifying<br />

Fund Manager and which complies with the conditions of Chapter 2 of Part 30 of the<br />

TCA <strong>for</strong> this type of fund.<br />

Approved Retirement Fund – a fund managed by a Qualifying Fund Manager and<br />

which complies with the conditions of Chapter 2 of Part 30 of the TCA <strong>for</strong> this type<br />

Bid price – the price of a unit of a fund, which we use to work out the value of the<br />

policy <strong>for</strong> each fund. This is the price we use when cancelling units from the policy.<br />

Consumer Price Index - the Consumer Price Index published by the <strong>Irish</strong><br />

government to measure inflation. (If this is not available, we will use an appropriate<br />

alternative.)<br />

Contribution cover - an optional policy benefit. If this benefit is chosen, premiums<br />

may be stopped <strong>for</strong> a period if you are disabled. We will place units into the unit<br />

account as though the regular premium was being paid. (See paragraphs 3.21 to 3.29)<br />
