Aegon Religare Decreasing Term Plan
Aegon Religare Decreasing Term Plan is another variant of the standard term insurance plan. The sum assured decreases by 5% each year till it reaches 5% of the initial Sum Assured in 20 years. This is a steady decrease in Sum Assured over the years. And the premium needs to be paid only for 11 years even for a 20 years policy. So it makes maximum sense to take a policy for 20 years and never less than that.
