Does a payor rider kicks in upon a diagnosed of a CI ?
The purpose of a CI policy is to obtain a lump sum payment and is there a reason why would an insured add a payor rider to continue the policy?
Isnt a payor rider kicks in only upon TPD or death to protect the dependents.
Because zzzextreme ask about CI so i answer for CI portion only. Except CI , payor actually cover TPD also.
If want to know in depth payor , there are payor basic , spouse payor , parent payor and so on ... all got its different function...
For basic and most widely used....is cover for both CI or TPD

Regarding your question : The purpose of a CI policy is to obtain a lump sum payment and is there a reason why would an insured add a payor rider to continue the policy?
My personal answer as below:
Scenario 1If lets say ALI purchase a CI ILP without payor. Once he is diagnosed with CI, he definitely will need to use a lot of cash + he cant pay for future policy premium.[lost income / job]
If he still want continue covered for life,accident,medical cards he have to continue pay by himself or just terminate it.
Scenario 2If ALI purchase CI policy with payor , after he get the lump sum cash from insurance company , he no need to continue pay the policy.
Insurance company help bear it until policy term ended. This means , after ALI diagnose with CI :
i) he get lump sum cash for treatment or own use [ this money eventually will finished used ]
ii) his payor kicks in which mean future policy money no need pay but
still continue insured with Life + Accident + Medical Card FOC [depend on what he purchase]
iii) future policy money all paid by insurance company , which mean cash keep continue accumulate inside the cash account for future withdrawal
* Once payor kicks in , everything cannot be modified anymore [imagine ALI is paying RM1000 monthly policy , this RM1000 is foc paid by insurance company every month]
* Because of ILP, certain % of money from this RM1000 is parked under investment / savings. So basically ALI keep on can withdraw cash in future as long as there are cash inside.
* Savings / Investment account portion will increase because CI rider already been eliminated

Or maybe in layman explanation , payor helps to
reduce future burden when
something unfortunate happen to someone but he survived.
