    So-called “child-only” plans are health insurance policies in which no parent or guardian is covered and the policyholder is age 18 or younger ...However, the concern that parents could delay purchasing coverage for children until they got sick led some health insurance companies to stop offering child-only plans.

Will our insurance system fail one day?

If I am correct, I think you are trying to ask that if start claiming from the insurance company, will they have the money to pay you when you die. First and foremost, it's a contract. Insurers pay billions in claims yearly. Secondly, the premium you pay insurance is invested so they'll be able to earn and pay you back when you die. Number three, all risk is already factored in. Some people will die earlier, others later, while some will cancel, and majority won’t even claim. All this is already priced in and you're paying fair value plus some mark-up for the risk you're passing on to the insurance company. Number four, there is regulation to make sure Insurers have enough money to pay claims. Lastly, insurance companies are reinsured by bigger insurance companies. So don't worry, keep paying your premiums, and you'll be able to claim.

Unlike its competitors, OCBC does not charge a processing fee

OCBC's debt consolidation loans charge slightly higher interest rates compared to those of other lenders in Singapore. For this reason, the bank's product is not the most affordable. On the other hand, individuals who are unable to obtain the most affordable debt consolidation loan offers could consider applying for OCBC's Debt Consolidation Plan as a backup option.
