Understanding the Sanlam Cumulus Echo Plan 


Planning for retirement is one of the most important financial decisions you’ll ever make. It’s not just about saving — it’s about ensuring that your hard work today translates into lasting security tomorrow. At Unore Insurance Brokers, we believe that every client deserves a retirement plan that grows with them, adapts to their goals, and reflects their lifestyle.

One of the solutions we often explore with our clients is the Sanlam Cumulus Echo Retirement Plan — a flexible and growth-focused product designed to help you build a strong financial foundation for your retirement years.\


What Is the Sanlam Cumulus Echo Retirement Plan?

The Cumulus Echo is a retirement annuity designed to help individuals save consistently and benefit from Sanlam’s unique Echo Bonus feature — a reward that adds an extra boost to your savings the longer you stay invested.


This plan is particularly suited for people who want:

A disciplined and tax-efficient way to save for retirement.

  • The freedom to choose their level of contributions and adjust them over time.
  • Access to market-linked growth through Sanlam’s diverse range of investment portfolios.
  • A bonus incentive that echoes their commitment to saving — effectively rewarding loyalty.


Why It Matters

Too often, people underestimate how much they’ll need at retirement. Inflation, medical costs, and longer lifespans all impact how far your money will go. The Sanlam Cumulus Echo Plan encourages consistency and long-term thinking — two key ingredients to building sustainable wealth.

It also takes advantage of retirement tax benefits, meaning your contributions may be tax-deductible, helping you save more efficiently while lowering your taxable income.

How Unore Insurance Brokers Helps You Decide

Choosing the right retirement plan can feel overwhelming — that’s where we come in. At Unore Insurance Brokers, we work independently — meaning we don’t represent one insurer, we represent you.
