Life insurance firm Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance has launched a new participating product called Flexi Savings Plan, which offers an innovative optional feature called Accrual of Survival Benefit. This feature gives customer the freedom to change timing of benefit payout as many times as necessary to match their individual requirements, the company has said.
The new Flexi Savings Plan is a non-linked, participating, individual,
savings, life insurance plan. It has three broad options to choose from, including , Flexi-Income Pro, and Large Sum. The accrual of survival benefit feature can be opted along with Flexi-Income and Flexi-Income Pro base plan options, as per he company.
Both Flexi-Income and Flexi-Income Pro plan options, let the policyholder choose an Income Start Year – 2nd policy year, 5th policy year or 1st year after end of premium paying term. The product offers a cash bonus starting the selected income start year, and a revisionary bonus, for those opting to start their income either from the 5th policy year or 1st year after end of premium paying term.
The key difference between both these options lies in the guaranteed income payout. Under Flexi-Income, the guaranteed income starts from the first year after premium paying term ends. Under Flexi-Income Pro, the guaranteed income is paid out as a lumpsum at an interval of 5five years after the premium paying term ends up to 30th policy year. Thereafter, a regular annual guaranteed income payout begins. On the other hand, Large Sum Plan, which is the third base plan option, offers a total maturity benefit at the end of the tenure.
