Mutuality Sub Title
The Spirit of Mutuality

Unlike a company that is listed on a stock exchange paying dividends to shareholders, PPS – through the ethos of mutuality – shares its returns with members holding qualifying life insurance products.

WHY MUTUALITY MATTERS

Mutuality Video Content

PPS members come from versatile and diverse professions. However, knowledge is only part of their success. In a world where the human touch is often lost, would you not rather be insured with a company that cares about your well-being?

SPIRIT OF MUTUALITY

PPS was founded by a group of dentists who realised that if any of them were to suffer from an illness that kept them from work, their earnings could be severely affected. To protect themselves, they started a society where everybody contributed. These funds would be used to help any member through a period of illness. With this shared value, PPS soon grew to include other like-minded professionals.

OUR ETHOS

Although this model is very popular in the developed world, it is a rarely used model in financial services in South Africa today. Mutuality is what defines us at PPS. It refers to our origins where graduate professionals worked together to protect every member’s financial future.

PPS PROFIT-SHARE ACCOUNT™

Once a graduate professional becomes a member with qualifying products, a notional PPS Profit-Share Account™ is automatically opened in their name.
 
Every year, after announcing our annual financial results, operating and investment returns generated by PPS, following the deduction of expenses and the retention of funds as required by regulatory standards, are then allocated to the members' respective notional PPS Profit-Share Accounts™, irrespective of claims they may submit.

VESTED PPS PROFIT-SHARE ACCOUNT™

After 60, the profits you have accumulated through the PPS Profit-Share Account over the course of your PPS membership may become available via the Vested PPS Profit-Share Account. You can use your accumulated profits in the Vested PPS Profit-Share Account as part of your retirement planning.

Supplement your post-retirement income by combining regular withdrawals from your Vested PPS Profit-Share Account with PPS Living Annuity income payments, allowing your annuity capital to last longer.

HOW THE PPS PROFIT-SHARE ACCOUNT™ WORKS

Accumulation phase (before 55)
 
Pre-retirement phase (55 to retirement)
 
Post-retirement phase (upon retirement, from 60)
