1. A client's life insurance policy with ABC Insurer lapsed five years ago. Under the PDPA's Retention Limitation Obligation, when should ABC Insurer cease to retain the client's personal data?

   • A. Immediately upon the policy lapsing to minimise data risk.
   • B. Only after receiving a written request for deletion from the former client.
   • C. Exactly seven years after the policy lapse date, to align with general accounting practices.
   • D. When retention no longer serves the original purpose and is not necessary for legal or business purposes.

Answer: D. When retention no longer serves the original purpose and is not necessary for legal or business purposes.

The Retention Limitation Obligation states that organisations must cease to retain personal data when it is no longer necessary for the legal or business purposes for which it was collected. There is no single fixed timeline; it depends on factors like potential future claims, regulatory record-keeping requirements, and other legal obligations that may require retention for a certain period even after a policy has ended.

Answer: B. Financial Advisers Act (FAA)

The Financial Advisers Act (FAA) governs the professional conduct of insurance intermediaries, including licensed financial advisers who provide financial advisory services including insurance.

Answer: C. Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS)

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is Singapore's central bank and integrated financial regulator. It administers the Insurance Act (Cap. 142) and is responsible for the licensing, regulation, and supervision of all insurance and reinsurance companies, as well as insurance intermediaries operating in Singapore.

Answer: B. Representing the interests of life insurers and promoting industry best practices.
