How it works

tab-how-it-works-header-icon

In this plan, premium needs to be paid for the entire policy tenure.

There is a unique option of Invest Protect Option, where the policyholder can choose to systematically move out of his current investment funds 3 years before maturity so that any volatility in the market would not affect his maturity benefit.

The Fund Value would be provided to the policyholder at the end of the policy tenure as Maturity Benefit. However, if the Life Insured dies within the policy tenure, then the Death Benefit would be paid and the policy would terminate. There is Double Death Benefit in this plan, such that if the Life Insured dies within the policy tenure, the nominee would receive the Sum Assured + the Fund Value as Death Benefit.

Let’s Understand The Plan With An Example:

Mr. Mahesh (age 37 years) is an engineer working with an Petroleum Company. His wife is a homemaker and they have two children, age 8 years and 5 years. Mahesh invests in various investment instruments, but is looking for a plan that offers a good life cover and provides growth for his money in the long run. Hence, he opts for Aegon Life’s Future Protect Plus Insurance Plan.

His plan details are as follows:
Cover Amount: Rs.9 lakhs,
Policy Term: 20 years, 
Premium Payment Term: 20 years,
Annual Premium: Rs.50,000/-

Apart from the above, Mahesh has also opted for the Invest Protect Option. This feature will not only help him gain from his investment but also minimise the risk to his returns. As the Policy nears maturity, it protects his money by systematically shifting his funds from equity fund to debt fund, during the last 3 Policy years.

The Discontinued Policy Fund will be credited with a minimum interest rate of 3.5% p.a. and the proceeds from this will be payable after the fifth policy anniversary.
