agree  Yvonne Gallagher: capital SUM is fixed (=stopped) seems best answer to me. The sum must be fixed/stopped and calculated BEFORE it can be settled

sum assured is settled


Explanation:
From the limited context provided, it looks like the sum assured is paid. (First, I thought it could be determined or calculated -- however, since the loss is total and irreversible; cannot foresee any calculation in such a case.)

here goes the link which says there is no inaccuracy to use 'declare'
http://www.chubb.com/international/singapore/ah/chubb5035.pd...
The Named Insured undertakes to
declare to the Company the Capital Sum Insured of every Insured Person at the
end of each Policy Period for year end adjustment. Coverage ceases upon the date
of termination of employment. The Named Insured shall provide written proof of
employment to the Company in the event of a claim.

disagree  Gurudutt Kamath: In an insurance contract, I cannot imagine the use of capital! Declared and disclosed are again inappropriate choice of words in this context.
4 hrs
  -> Please give reference if its not otherwise disagree without reason or reference seems like just hitting disagree button + Translators are not working on word 'imagine', what we think, we say it
disagree  AllegroTrans: Agree with GK; this about a sum assured, we woudln't call it capital in English// OK but he happens to have somehow hit a "correct" button with his answer!
7 hrs
  -> I can consider your disagree but not his as he is just hitting disagree button without proper explanation
