InvestAssure Future

Ans. As the name suggests, the guaranteed bonus is payable on maturity or on death before maturity. It is not payable in case of surrender before the policy term. Q10. What is the maximum age at which I can offer an InvestAssure Flexi or an InvestAssure Future? Ans. The maximum issue age for InvestAssure Flexi is 65 years and InvestAssure Future is 70 years for the single premium option and 65 years for the regular premium variant. Q11. What is the minimum sum assured for InvestAssure Future? Ans. There is no life cover offered with InvestAssure Future. This is beneficial, since the plan is a pension plan and there will be no mortality charges for the same. In case of an unfortunate death, the fund value and the guaranteed bonus as on date will be paid to the nominee. Q12. What’s new in InvestAssure Future? What will help me sell more? Ans. InvestAssure Future is a Unit Linked Pension plan. It has been designed to help harness the power of the market to create as large a corpus as possible during the working life of an individual, so that he can have a comfortable retired life. The advantage that this plan offers is two fold- first of all, it does not have a life cover, so nothing gets cut out from the premium that you pay towards mortality charges and secondly, only upto 1/3 can be commuted and the balance has to be used to purchase an annuity. This will pay pension to the customer after retirement. Since the plan helps to target a segment where very few people pay much attention, i.e. retirement planning, it will be easier to position the same as the ideal retirement solution. Q13. What are the options available as far as the maturity value is concerned for InvestAssure Future? Can I take the entire maturity value as a lumpsum? Ans. In InvestAssure Future, you can commute only 1/3 of the maturity value as a lumpsum, which can be used to make urgent payments (paying off a loan, etc). The balance has to be used to purchase an annuity, which will start paying annual pensions to the customer. The advantage is that the customer will get money when he needs it the most, ensuring an independent retired life. It is a well known fact that lumpsum amounts tend to get spent, which will leave nothing for expenses in the retired life. The customer has an open market option as far as the annuity is concerned. It is not mandatory for the customer to purchase an annuity with Tata AIG Life. Q14. Does the Future Capital Guarantee Pension fund guarantee the amount or the NAV? Ans. The Premiums paid towards the Future Capital Guarantee Pension fund is guaranteed. Q15. Are there any premium redirection charges applicable? If yes, after how many premium redirections will the charge be imposed? Ans. There are no charges for redirection of future premiums. However, premium redirection towards the Future Capital Guarantee Pension fund is not allowed.

Q16. If I switch from the Future Capital Guarantee Pension fund, to what extent will the Guarantee be reduced? Ans. Let’s take an example- The total premium paid is Rs. 50,000 , the fund value as on date is Rs. 80,000 and the customer switches Rs. 30,000 to another fund.
