There are many ways to plan for your retirement.
Investment
Some early adopters may prefer the use of investment as opposed to traditional participating endowment policies as they have a longer time horizon. Consequently, they can deploy various investment strategies to improve thier retirement pot over time.
Participating Endowment
Most participating endowment policies have a guaranteed component. As a result, they form the fixed income portion of your entire financial portfolio.

What is a Participating Fund?
For the purpose of retirement, I usually prefer a step-up guaranteed stream of income. This will be a natural hedge against inflation in the future.
A combination
Of course, many of my clients use a combination of investment and endowment policies to achieve the best of both worlds - potentially higher return from the bull market while cushioning the impact during a bear market.
Such combination is simplified through AIA as it provides such a hybrid combination in a single policy (lesser expense ratio as compared to using an individual policy each).
Singapore Savings Bonds (SSB)
Generally, Singapore Savings Bonds are safer than bank deposits. Some of my clients have maxed out the yield from the bank and may need liquidity in the short term. Hence, SSB becomes a viable option.
