Speaking at the launch of the product, AalokBhan, Director and Chief Marketing Officer, Max Life, said, “Term insurance, despite being the economicaland most fundamental form of financial protection, continues to witness low uptake in India. In a recent study called the ‘India Protection Quotient’ that we conducted in association with Kantar IMRB, it was observed that majority of Indian consumers, even those who own life insurance, feel financially under protected. While a reasonable 65% of the urban population of the country owns life insurance, term insurance owners only make an abysmal 21% of urban India. Taking the endeavour to increase the level of financial protection in the country, we have launched ‘Max Life Smart Term Plan’, with the aim to promote greater adoption of term insurance by iterating that one only pays for benefits that one avails as per one’s requirements.
