He also spoke on how the online platform favors the company, quoting that 23% of the total sales are generated via online channels.
Roy told that this fiscal, the company targets 50% growth in premium collection, up from last year’s 32%. He talked about Bandhan Life’s claim settlement process that resolves claims within 48 hours. The company expects to cross its claim settlement ratio from the present 87 % to 90% by 2015-16.
The company also launched Bandhan Life Premier Endowment Insurance Plan recently. This plan offers guaranteed addition of 5% of the sum assured to the customer’s savings every year, during the premium payment term. In addition to the life cover, it offers an increased benefit amount with the accumulation of bonus beginning from the first year. It is a good plan for targeting medium- or long-term goals.
