GENERAL INFORMATION

Basicallly there are two type of insurance one is General Insurance and second is

life Insurance.

1.General insurance is concerned with insurance of non living things.example:-

Insurance of Vehicle, Machine, House,etc.

2.Life insurance is concerned with living things example:-Insurance of Human

being.

Before 1991 when Indian government was not liberalized insurance sector was

totally on the hand of government(LIC) was playing one man army role. After 1991 we

became liberalized and government open the door of insurance sector and any private

player can enter into the insurance sector.

It is quite obvious that in private sector there motive is profit so the chance of

malpractices is higher as compare to government sector so to avoid this type of things

government has formulated one regulatory board which is known as a IRDA(Insurance

Regulatory and Development Authority) which control the entire insurance sector

whether it is General or Life Insurance.

If any private company wants to enter into the insurance market than it has to give

100crore Rs. To IRDA for security purpose.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

INTRODUCTION

There is a new way of looking at the people in your organisation...

Through “Employee Benefits” from Kotak Life Insurance.

Some little known facts..

In today’s fast changing environment, the average life expectancy is increasing with the advent of modern medicine and technology. In 1945 it stood at 45 years, in 2002 it was 66 years and is expected to be 79 years in 2022. Retired life span is nearly competing with work life span! For an average employee current work life span is 58 years, future would see it reducing to 50 years i.e. we will have a work life span of about 25 years and a retired life span of 25 years too based on a life expectancy of atleast 75 years!! Day-to-day living costs are increasing at a drastic pace too.

Take the example of cost of milk per litre.

1991 – Rs. 10 per litre

2002 – Rs. 20 per litre

2020 – a whopping Rs. 80!!!

The costs of medical treatment too are on an upward scale. An angioplasty treatment that was

available for Rs. 1 Lakh in 1991, went upto Rs. 3.5 lakhs in 2002 and will be an astounding Rs. 10

lakhs in 2010!

Today, your employees are looking beyond immediate benefits like salary and bonuses, to benefits that they value.

Therefore, a need to plan in a systematic long term manner for the future.

The Kotak Complete Cover Grouplan (KCCG) provides life insurance cover for a group of borrowers. Under this

innovative plan, the credit institution is the beneficiary and premium is payable in a single lump sum at the beginning

Page 56: Kotal Mahindra Life Insurance

of the loan tenure. KCCG is a flexible plan that allows you to structure insurance cover in a manner that best suits you

and your borrowers.

"How does KCCG work?

KCCG provides reducing term insurance cover on a fixed rate basis for a fixed term to a group of borrowers of your

credit institution. The master policy is in the name of the lending institution.

"What are the advantages of the Kotak Complete Cover Grouplan for me as a lending institution?"

KCCG benefits you in multiple ways:

The Kotak Complete Cover Grouplan provides numerous advantages to your borrowers:

The borrower’s family is relieved of the financial burden of paying the outstanding loan amount

The asset remains in the borrower’s family

Life insurance cover is available worldwide, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week anywhere in the world

Premium rates are on a group basis and therefore much less expensive than any individual insurance plan

available in the market

No medical tests are required in most cases

Simple processing

"What is the maximum amount of cover allowed under the plan?"

The maximum cover allowed to any individual borrower under this plan is the lower of the loan outstanding amount

or Rs. 10 lakhs.

Page 57: Kotal Mahindra Life Insurance

"What size of group can be covered?"

The minimum group size required for KCCG is 1000. There is no restriction on maximum group size.

"Is coverage compulsory for all members of the group?"

The KCCG plan offers you flexibility in structuring the parameters of the plan. You can require all your borrowers to

compulsorily take the insurance cover or you can make the insurance cover voluntary. In the case of voluntary plans, a

minimum of 25% of borrowers must elect to participate in the plan.

"What is the term of the KCCG cover?"

KCCG plan can be structured to suit your needs as well as those of your borrowers. The insurance cover can be for

any term between 1 year and 5 years.

"What happens in the event of a death of the borrower?"

In the event of death of a borrower, the outstanding loan amount would be paid by Kotak Life Insurance as a death

benefit to your credit institution. In turn, the borrower’s family is relieved of the financial burden of paying off the

outstanding loan and retains the asset.

The benefits are payable in Indian Rupees only.

"What happens if a borrower prepays his loan?"

In the event of prepayment of the loan, a portion of the single premium paid will be refunded. Further details of the

premium refund formula are available upon request.

Page 58: Kotal Mahindra Life Insurance

"How is the premium paid?

KCCG is a single premium policy and premium is payable once at the commencement of the policy by the credit

institution. You may wish to recover the premium amount directly from your borrowers through a one-time charge, or

through an addition to the monthly loan repayment. You also have the option of purchasing the insurance cover as a

value addition to your credit product at no cost to your borrowers.

"What riders are available along with KCCG?"

The Critical Illness Benefit can be added to the basic KCCG policy. Kotak Life Insurance’s Critical Illness Benefit

provides for payment of a lump sum to the borrower in the event of diagnosis of any of 12 critical illnesses. Payment

of the Critical Illness Benefit causes the basic life cover and the rider cover to cease

Additional information is available on the Critical Illness Benefit upon request.

In addition, no benefit would be paid in respect of the exclusions specific to each critical illness. Exclusions to Critical

Illness Benefit Rider apply as mentioned under Kotak Term Grouplan.

TRAINING

Training:

It’s said that everybody needs Insurance but no body wants Insurance. Insurance is sold

and not bought. In such scenario it becomes very necessary to ensure there is no mis-

selling happening. This can be done only through extensive training of the sales force on

all aspects of insurance and the company’s products. KLI recognized this need from the

beginning. We have obtained significant involvement and assistance from Old Mutual’s

experience and training practices. Today, KLI’s training department is headed by an Old

Mutual representative supported by 39 trainers and 37 fully equipped IRDA accredited,

training centers.

BANC ASSURANCE

Banc assurance in its simplest form is the distribution of insurance

products through a bank's distribution channels. In concrete terms banc

assurance, which is also known as Allfinanz - describes a package of financial

services that can fulfill both banking and insurance needs at the same time.

It takes various forms in various countries depending upon the demography and

economic and legislative climate of that country. Demographic profile of the

country decides the kind of products banc assurance shall be dealing in with,

economic situation will determine the trend in terms of turnover, market share,

etc., whereas legislative climate will decide the periphery within which the banc

assurance has to operate.

The motives behind banc assurance also vary. For banks it is a means of product

diversification and a source of additional fee income. Insurance companies see

banc assurance as a tool for increasing their market penetration and premium

turnover. The customer sees banc assurance as a bonanza in terms of reduced

price, high quality product and delivery at doorsteps. Actually, everybody is a

winner here.
