‘Level-up’ the financial well-being of your loved ones

The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has made us realize the importance of protection in our lives. Over 2.5 lakh people have succumbed to the deadly virus in the country, many of them being the breadwinners of the family. This only highlights the importance of having a future-proof life insurance policy to rely on when it comes to protecting your family in your absence and help fulfil financial needs.

The primary purpose of life insurance is to provide financial security and stability to dependants in case of any life uncertainty faced by the insured. The policy pays a specified amount called a “death benefit” to the named beneficiary. However, if you were to understand the term clearly and also appreciate its importance in your life, consider “life insurance” as a ‘back-up plan for your loved ones’.

The sum assured should not only suffice the current needs but also the evolving lifestyle needs of the loved ones. That is possible only if the pay-out under the insurance policy is enough to compensate for the lost income due to the death of the policyholder. In case the sum assured is not carefully evaluated based on the future needs of the family, the insurance proceeds may exhaust sooner than you know.

To make a decision on the amount of cover you need, you must assess and consider aspects such as: Your age, financial responsibilities, family’s future financial needs, basic expenses based on your lifestyle, the loans you are servicing and also account for inflation and rising costs. When you buy a life insurance policy, you can also choose some extra benefits on top of the base policy, which are called “riders” or “add-ons”. You can choose from add-on riders like Accidental Death Benefit or Accidental Total & Permanently Disability Benefit Rider and so on.

In today’s ever-changing environment, there is a need for a new age protection plan that provides the flexibility to increase in sum assured linked to the significant events in life that demand higher protection. SBI Life Insurance has launched a unique new age protection solution ‘SBI Life -eShield Next’, that ‘Levels Up’ the coverage as the insured achieves life’s prominent milestones. It is an individual, non-linked, non-participating, life insurance pure risk premium product and works by ‘levelling up’ the required insurance protection, by an increase in sum assured linked to the significant milestones in one’s life, like getting married, becoming a parent or buying a new house.
