A term insurance plan that provides an option of ‘better half’ benefit gives an additional life insurance cover to the policyholder's spouse when the policyholder is not around. In this way, the plan ensures complete financial security for the complete family. Some of the key features of this plan are:
Term life insurance is the most basic form of insurance where only the policyholder's life is covered. A term policy usually has no savings component, and so it is known as a pure insurance tool. Term Life Insurance is one of the most popular and widely sold insurance products worldwide simply because it provides a high cover at a low rate, making it very affordable for people.
Under this plan, a yearly premium has to be paid to Edelweiss Life Insurance. On the insured's death during the policy tenure, the insurance amount, called the Sum Assured, is paid by Edelweiss Life Insurance to the nominees of the insured. If the insured survives the policy term, he or she does not get anything in return and loses the yearly premiums paid.
Edelweiss Life Insurance Company offers several term life insurance plans to cover the needs of its customers.
Your premium is decided on age at which you buy the policy and remains same, throughout your life
Premiums can increase between 4-8% each year after your Birthday
Your policy application could be rejected or premiums increase by 50-100%, if you develop a lifestyle disease
An increasing term plan is the opposite of a decreasing term plan, and here the sum assured increases each year. This term insurance has a higher value as the sum assured rises every year. This term plan is often brought to secure the policyholder against inflation. If the policyholder feels that the sum assured would not be sufficient in the years to come with rising costs, he can opt for term insurance. The sum assured goes up by 5% every year up to a maximum of 50%, i.e. until the original sum assured is doubled.
A convertible term plan is a type of term insurance policy that can be converted or changed into an endowment plan later in the duration of the policy. The premium rate will change at the time of conversion and become higher. A convertible term plan is ideal for a person who wants to have his life insured at a lower cost early on in life but wants to invest in the insurance plan to address additional financial responsibilities later.
The importance of having term life insurance from Edelweiss Life Insurance cannot be overstated. Amongst all the cheapest life insurance products available in the market, a term plan from Edelweiss Life Insurance helps secure the financial future of one's near and dear ones in the unfortunate event of one not being around to take care of them personally.
Edelweiss Life Insurance helps avoid the possibility of one's family facing bad times due to financial instability in the future.
After having decided to purchase a term insurance plan from Edelweiss Life Insurance, certain things should be kept in mind before taking the final step of buying a plan. These will help avoid confusion and prevent buying a term plan that does not meet one's requirements adequately. It will also restrict over-spending.
The first and foremost thing to do once one has made up his or her mind to buy term insurance is to determine the quantum of cover required. After considering various factors, this amount is arrived at – one's responsibilities, liabilities, income, life-stage, etc.
It is important to understand the purpose of an Edelweiss Life Insurance term plan. It is not bought for the individual benefit of the policyholder/insured but that of his or her family. A term plan from Edelweiss Life Insurance helps secure the financial future of the near and dear ones of the insured if he or she is no longer around to take care of them.
The unique life stage of the insured while purchasing the Edelweiss Life Insurance term plan – whether he or she is single, married or married with children goes to determine the cover amount. The financial responsibility of a married person is obviously higher than someone who is still unmarried. Again, a person with kids has to shoulder more responsibility as he or she has to take care of his or her spouse and his or her children. Consequently, such a situation will require a higher cover.
The number of earning members in a family and additional sources of income to contribute to the overall collective income also affects the amount of insurance required from Edelweiss Life Insurance. The insured, who is the sole breadwinner of the family, will require a much higher cover from Edelweiss Life Insurance to take care of his or her family in his or her absence than a family with more than one earning member.
The total value of liabilities also determines the amount of cover required from Edelweiss Life Insurance. The higher the liabilities, the greater will be the cover required. Liabilities may include outstanding loans which may have been taken to purchase a house or car or taken for children's higher education or for children's marriage.
Apart from determining the cover amount, the needs and requirements of one's family have to be assessed accurately to address them adequately through the term plans of Edelweiss Life Insurance.
The capability of Family Members to Handle Finances
Term plans from Edelweiss Life Insurance usually present a huge lump sum amount of money as a death benefit to the insured's immediate family on his or her demise.
The insured or would-be-insured should make an unbiased judgment on the competence of his or her family members in handling finances. Suppose he or she realizes that their kith and kin are inexperienced and incapable of handling money matters, especially huge sums of money. In that case, alternative options should be explored to reduce the risk of botching up finances. Edelweiss Life Insurance offers annuity payment options as well as monthly, quarterly or semi-annual payments. In addition, Edelweiss Life Insurance offers lump sum payments at different life stages.
The insured/would-be-insured should also endeavor to provide a safety cushion by way of a regular income to his or her family to take care of their day-to-day needs. A fixed monthly income from Edelweiss Life Insurance, in addition to the lump sum amount, will help in this regard.
While determining one's family's needs and requirements, such an option should be chosen that allows them to continue living the lifestyle they are used to despite rising costs and expenses in the unpleasant scenario of the absence of the insured. The best option would also cover their wants and aspirations, but this would mean higher premiums.
Today, several insurance companies offer life insurance policies, and many offer term plans. Things like the insurance company's claim settlement ratio, customer service standards, and market reputation, among others, should be considered in detail before zeroing in on an insurer.
Claim Settlement Ratio is defined as the ratio of claims honored by the insurance company versus the total claims received from customers. A higher ratio signifies greater disbursement of funds to the policyholders, or his or her nominees, as the case might be.
In addition to having a favorable claim settlement ratio, the claim settlement process must be quick, simple, and hassle-free. People resort to filing claims only in times of need when they have suffered the personal loss of their near and dear one, the insured. These are delicate times when family members need all the reassurance and support, even from the insurance company.
It is advisable to choose an insurance company with a strong financial record. A solid record signifies stability and security and gives confidence that when a situation arises, the company will honor the claim and help secure the future of the insured's family.
The business of life insurance is all about trust and credibility. And superior customer service is a big part of it. A customer-centric organization makes buying a term plan easy and ensures that nominees and family members of the insured have a positive experience during the claim settlement process. An organization that provides a positive experience to customers at every touchpoint will undoubtedly focus on nurturing long-term relationships with customers.
A life insurance company that has a good standing in the market is a better option. Positive customer experiences create a good reputation over a period of time. It is always a good idea to go through customer reviews and testimonials on online forums and social networks to get a realistic picture of the reputation of a life insurer. Past customers will always have positive things to say about a company whose dealings are fair, quick, and smooth.
A life insurance company known for good corporate governance is bound to offer better products and superior service to customers. Such companies are more transparent and accountable. Hence, it makes sense to buy policies of such companies whose internal processes are streamlined.
Edelweiss Life Insurance offers customers the option to buy term plans from its website itself. The company offers specific plans which are available online only. The customer only needs to log into the company's website, choose the required plan, choose the coverage and provide the details. The premium will be determined using the filled details. The customer then needs to pay the premium online through credit card, debit card or net banking facilities, and the policy will be issued. Edelweiss Life Insurance plans purchased online are often cheaper than when they are purchased offline.
Plans which are not available online can be purchased from agents, brokers, banks, etc., where the intermediaries help with the application process. Edelweiss Life Insurance Company finally issues the policy.
